| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, 64bit has less packages than 32bit, but 64bit has some things 32bit dosen't have | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, other than that i dont know | 00:00 |
| thahauss | clandestine_j, thanks, excuse my nubness but it would read like this then "rdesktop -u Administrator -p xxxxxx -r sound:remote -g 1900x1100+0+0 192.168.254.4 > dev/null" | 00:00 |
| MarkJones | noIdeasOriginal: 64bit can handle larger CPU instreuctions if apps are programmed to take advantage.And memory gets used better. | 00:00 |
| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, wow 8gb? i got a comp from '07 and it has 2gb :( | 00:00 |
| thahauss | clandestine_j, I tried this, and now it wont launch at all | 00:00 |
| noIdeasOriginal | i'm fairly new to all this so i don't know what you mean by packages | 00:00 |
| vigo1 | !packages | 00:00 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 00:00 |
| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, biggest one in the house is 3gb and it's also from '07, smallest is 1gb | 00:00 |
| taz | thanks i fix it | 00:01 |
| Dreamglider | noIdeasOriginal: you want 64bit if you want to use 8Gb ram. | 00:01 |
| mac9416_2 | racecar56, Do you know how to do it without X? | 00:01 |
| clandestine_j | thahauss: let me look; i'm running your command and it doesn't load for me with or without the redirection | 00:01 |
| vigo1 | noIdeasOriginal: Packages are files or programs. | 00:01 |
| leejongwook | where can i get c source files ? | 00:01 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, i think i have a hunch, idk though | 00:01 |
| noIdeasOriginal | markjones: right, i understand that. i have winxp x64 but alot of programs aren't for it. so i have like 7.75 gb ram in winxp x64. i tried ubuntu 64bit but it won't work for some reason. | 00:01 |
| MarkJones | leejongwook: Source code for what? | 00:01 |
| leejongwook | utilities | 00:01 |
| thahauss | clandestine_j, w/o the redirection it works fine on my end | 00:02 |
| leejongwook | tree rm etc.. | 00:02 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, make a shell script in your homedir or somewhere, and type commands you want it to run, make that shellscript be run on startup with the sessions thing | 00:02 |
| MarkJones | noIdeasOriginal: Oh | 00:02 |
| gkey | anyone any pointers to get cisco vpnc to work (it times out my connections) | 00:02 |
| leejongwook | MarkJones: all the linux source files :) | 00:02 |
| mac9416_2 | racecar56: A'ight, thanks, man. | 00:02 |
| MarkJones | lets see here | 00:03 |
| MarkJones | 1 sec | 00:03 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, kk | 00:03 |
| centHOGG | OT: anybody here good with geexbox | 00:03 |
| noIdeasOriginal | cool i'm going to definately look into those packages once i get ubuntu working.... to i'd really love to get 64bit working on the PC but i can't overcome that IOMMU issue | 00:03 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, just notice that if you want to do it with a computer that dosen't even have X, then ask someone else, cause i have no earthly clue | 00:03 |
| Lam__ | i'm writing a shell right now and i need to test my input redirection, but i don't know of a suitable command to do it. will grep work? | 00:03 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, like a server | 00:03 |
| noIdeasOriginal | i tried to add a few lines to the boot line when trying to demo or install it, but no luck. i've also tried to look into the BIOS to get IOMMU enabled but i can't find that option whatsoever. | 00:03 |
| MarkJones | leejongwook: packages.ubuntu.com you can download sources for most apps there. | 00:04 |
| leejongwook | MarkJones: thanks a lot :) thank you ~ | 00:04 |
| MarkJones | welcome | 00:04 |
| Lam__ | yes it does. i solved my question using bash. thanks anyways | 00:05 |
| PROject-Emerald | MarkJones: Thanks :D | 00:05 |
| MarkJones | Your Weclome | 00:05 |
| mac9416_2 | racecar56: Right, thanks man. I think this answered my question: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/ | 00:05 |
| solexious | Hi, my main drive on my server is dieing quite rapidly, what should I copy so I can clone it? | 00:06 |
| MarkJones | noIdeasOriginal: Ive never heard of a BIOS option called IOMMU. | 00:07 |
| racecar56 | mac9416_2, cool, i have been trying to figure out myself :P | 00:07 |
| solexious | I dont think it would survive a full disk clone | 00:07 |
| MarkJones | solexious: You need to clone a drive or back it up? | 00:07 |
| RedMonkey | sol, you might want to back up /boot | 00:07 |
| jmanuel_cool | please, can someone help me, i have a trouble with mi keyboard | 00:07 |
| RedMonkey | your kernel configs | 00:07 |
| RedMonkey | any custom init scripts | 00:07 |
| MarkJones | ask your question about your keyboard | 00:07 |
| Dreamglider | solexious: either you copy your most important files or you clone the entire disk/partition | 00:07 |
| thahauss | +0 192.168.254.4" so the terminal doesn't display and show up in the panel and ideas on how 2 do this? | 00:08 |
| jmanuel_cool | directional keys don't work | 00:08 |
| solexious | Its just system stuff that is on the disk, my personal files are on another disk | 00:08 |
| jmanuel_cool | all my keyboard work right 'till i install nvidia driver last night | 00:08 |
| MarkJones | solexious: I personally use a live image of Parted magic.They have a curerent new release of 4.0. find it on distrowatch.com theres a tool called partition image on it thats very good. | 00:08 |
| mattwj2002 | hi guys | 00:09 |
| mattwj2002 | I need some help | 00:09 |
| Dreamglider | !ask | 00:10 |
| MarkJones | ask your question go ahead. | 00:10 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 00:10 |
| solexious | MarkJones, pretty sure it wont be alive with that much use... | 00:10 |

| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, ok, got another keyboard? chances are it might work | 00:13 |
| MarkJones | solexious: Welcome | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, i have tons of them, old and somewhat new | 00:13 |
| dani-boy | hey guys how do you change the notification style on ubuntu 9.04? i noticed that the one that came with the installation is different from the one in the video about 9.04 features. Any ways to change the style? | 00:13 |
| Labmonkey123 | my computer is a dell e510, I am trying to find what powersupply i have | 00:13 |
| jmanuel_cool | was after i install nvidia driver whet start the trouble | 00:13 |
| jmanuel_cool | when | 00:13 |
| Labmonkey123 | ill try youtube thanks | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | Labmonkey123, open the comp's side and look @ the model, look @ ebay (or similar) and search for the model, problem solved | 00:14 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: check your System menu under admin or preferences and/or gnome settings. | 00:14 |
| jmanuel_cool | racecar56, the keyboard works in console (tty1 F.E.) but in gnome or fluxbox or lxde don't work | 00:14 |
| dani-boy | oki doki, thanks mark | 00:14 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: if its changeablew its in there somehwere. | 00:14 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, odd, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg? | 00:14 |
| noIdeasOriginal | can someone help me please | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, odd, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg? (sorry) | 00:15 |
| jmanuel_cool | racecar56, don't work | 00:15 |
| noIdeasOriginal | i just tried the 32bit version | 00:15 |
| mattwj2002 | anyone have any ideas? | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, odd, sorry i get mixed up -_- | 00:15 |
| jmanuel_cool | i tried reconfigure console-setup | 00:15 |
| MarkJones | Ideas about what? | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:15 |
| blackest | Anyone tried connecting an ubuntu pc to the wan port of a router and sharing a 3g connection ? | 00:15 |
| mattwj2002 | where to find the "lexmark-inkjet-08-driver" driver for my x2600 lexmark printer | 00:15 |
| thewrath | hey is the issue with the udpates worked out | 00:15 |
| jmanuel_cool | racecar56, i tried all that before ask in chat | 00:15 |
| noIdeasOriginal | it says loading, please wait. and then i get a busybox v1.10.2 then (initramfs) with a whole bunch of stuff after that | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | jmanuel_cool, kk | 00:16 |
| thewrath | i think it was something with perl or something | 00:16 |
| clandestine_j | bhiggins: if you have all the manpages, then you can do "man 2 call" where call is the syscall; or "man 3 lib" where lib is the library call | 00:16 |
| clandestine_j | bhiggins: you need to apt-get install manpages-dev for those | 00:16 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: Check the included drivers in the driver list of ubuntu or website of manufacturer.Otherwise its probably not supported. | 00:16 |
| blackest | mattwj2002: is there a driver for lexmark ? | 00:16 |
| jmanuel_cool | the chat is my last utilty (i tried learn before) when all fail then i try chat | 00:16 |
| noIdeasOriginal | should i just give up? sheesh | 00:16 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: or other option is to look for PPD (postscript printer driver file) | 00:16 |
| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, i h8 busybox... i call that getting 'busyrolled'. i remember a while back trying kubuntu on my 2006 laptop and it busyrolled me ALL THE TIME, but it's fixed these days | 00:17 |
| mattwj2002 | according to this website there is suppose to be | 00:17 |
| mattwj2002 | http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-X2600_Series | 00:17 |
| mattwj2002 | but I can't find the file to download :( | 00:17 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: Ill take a look | 00:17 |
| jmanuel_cool | ok, tx | 00:17 |
| noIdeasOriginal | how do i fix being 'busyrolled' then, lol | 00:17 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: What model printer? | 00:17 |
| noIdeasOriginal | at least now i know that it wasn't just an issue trying 64bit | 00:17 |
| mac9416_2 | How can I stream audio from a microphone via a web page on a home network server? | 00:18 |
| johnfinch | Howdy, I need to figure out how to get my computer to record audio, preferably through audacity. Anyone know anything of the sort? | 00:18 |
| dani-boy | no no dude, its not the printer | 00:18 |
| dani-boy | let me show you | 00:18 |
| MarkJones | k | 00:18 |
| dani-boy | have a look at this from ubuntu 9.04 http://www.markshuttleworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/jaunty904_notifications_example1_web_092.swf | 00:18 |
| racecar56 | johnfinch, hack with the settings dialog, took me a while but i fixed it | 00:18 |
| racecar56 | does ubuntu 9.04rc have trouble with a ati radeon 2400? and does it have fglrx for it? | 00:18 |
| MarkJones | oh sorry | 00:19 |
| dani-boy | i was just wondering if there's a way to change those notification so my ubuntu could have the same ones as in the video | 00:19 |
| MarkJones | Getting peopel mixed up. | 00:19 |
| johnfinch | What do you have to do racecar? I'm about ready to just switch back to XP which I really don't want to do. I've tried switching audio inputs and all that rot to no avail. | 00:19 |
| dani-boy | hehe | 00:19 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: Did you check gnome settings? | 00:19 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: open home folder. edit, preferences? | 00:20 |
| dani-boy | let me do that, just a sec | 00:20 |
| MarkJones | k | 00:20 |
| racecar56 | johnfinch, i don't really know... does it work in other apps? and anyway, what's your audacity version? mine is 1.3.7 | 00:20 |
| centHOGG | johnfinch: i made a low-end linux ws that uses audacity for recording vinyl | 00:20 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, Are you simply not seeing the transparency? | 00:20 |
| Raylz | xfce has grown fat right? | 00:20 |
| Ademan | Raylz: no | 00:21 |
| racecar56 | Raylz, somewhat | 00:21 |
| dani-boy | yeh and my volume bar is different | 00:21 |
| Jordan_U | Raylz, I wouldn't say so, not sure about Xubuntu though :) | 00:21 |
| johnfinch | racecar56: I have the latest version of Audacity. I can't record any audio on my computer though, not even through sound recorder. | 00:21 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: if you want tranparency you probably need compiz turned on with a working graphics driver | 00:21 |
| blackest | mattwj2002: its difficult give me a chance and i'll search but its a swine they hide all linux drivers | 00:22 |
| dani-boy | oooooh | 00:22 |
| johnfinch | centHOGG: I want to record through a Blue Snowball. I need to track instruments and stuff like that. | 00:22 |
| Raylz | Ademan: so how much ram does it consum when doing nothing? | 00:22 |
| dani-boy | so they made that video with compiz | 00:22 |
| racecar56 | i tried xubuntu on some old computer and it LAGLAGLAGLAGLAGLAGLAGGED, while kubuntu, YES, KUBUNTU KDE4, worked better. really weird | 00:22 |
| Ademan | how do you use screen to allow you to launch X11 applications on a remote computer? I remember the command was non-trivial if only because the man pages never directly reference X11. something like screen -Rm or screen -Rd or something | 00:22 |
| mattwj2002 | thanks blackest | 00:22 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: hard to say but if you r talking tranparancy then yeah | 00:22 |
| centHOGG | johnfinch: i dunno Blue whatever | 00:22 |
| dani-boy | is there a new compiz version that came out with 9.04? | 00:22 |
| noIdeasOriginal | i guess this nvidia geforce 8200 isn't supported | 00:23 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, That video was a mockup from before notify-osd was actually implemented IIRC | 00:23 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: well its included in Hardy and Intrepid so shoudl be for Jaunty also.\ | 00:23 |
| racecar56 | johnfinch, odd, you are either unlucky like my pc (my laptop records fine), your mic is bad, or ubuntu's settings are screwed | 00:23 |
| johnfinch | centHOGG: Do you know how to enable or fix ubuntu to record audio in any way? I can't even get sound recorder to work. | 00:23 |
| dani-boy | oh i see | 00:23 |
| centHOGG | johnfinch: sure PM me | 00:23 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: install "compiz config settinsg manager " to tweak compiz effects | 00:24 |
| MarkJones | CCSM | 00:24 |
| racecar56 | johnfinch, try matching audacity's settings with ubuntu's. | 00:24 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, Your hardware probably does not support compiz out of the box, otherwise you would see transparency | 00:24 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: make sure you have a 3d video driver installed also. | 00:24 |
| dani-boy | no no compiz works great on my laptop | 00:24 |
| Ademan | Raylz: that's a silly question, idle ram usage isn't a good metric of... well... anything other than idle ram usage. anyways, I use gnome on this computer, so I couldn't quote you any numbers | 00:24 |
| dani-boy | i guess i'll play around with compiz to find the right match | 00:24 |
| racecar56 | does ubuntu 9.04rc have trouble with a ati radeon 2400? and does it have fglrx for it? | 00:24 |
| === default is now known as bootio | ||
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, What happens when you mouse over a notification right now? | 00:25 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: tranparency shoudl work right out of the box. | 00:25 |
| noIdeasOriginal | if anyone has any input or solution for me please message me | 00:25 |
| Raylz | Ademan: ye i mean idle | 00:25 |
| dani-boy | it goes transparent | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, OK, so it' | 00:25 |
| dani-boy | but i wanted to change the way the notification is presented | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, What about it? | 00:25 |
| racecar56 | noIdeasOriginal, please explain more, sorry if you did before but my comp is laggin' like nuts because my stupid fglrx wont install | 00:26 |
| dani-boy | so you're saying that there should be a package with different notification styles, right? | 00:26 |
| MarkJones | dani-boy: look in your System menu under preferences.Might be in one of those. | 00:26 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, No | 00:26 |
| blackest | mattwj2002: wget http://www.downloaddelivery.com/downloads/cpd/lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.deb.sh.zip | 00:26 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, What about it do you want to change? | 00:26 |
| dani-boy | i wanted to make it just like in the video | 00:27 |
| mattwj2002 | blackest how did you find it? | 00:27 |
| blackest | i googled it | 00:27 |
| mattwj2002 | hmmm | 00:27 |
| mattwj2002 | I tried that no luck | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | dani-boy, Since the video was a mockup I don't think it will ever be exactly like the video | 00:28 |

| dani-boy | ahh oki doki, would have been awesome but i'll live with what i got now | 00:28 |
| duffc | 2 more days :D | 00:28 |
| racecar56 | starfruit, click the wireless tab and then click a connection, click properties, sorry but i dont have wireless so i cant help | 00:29 |
| racecar56 | got to brb | 00:29 |
| blackest | mattwj2002: i'd ditch the lexmark asap horrible company | 00:29 |
| dani-boy | hey thanks Jordan and Mark. Appreeshiyated you answering me questions. | 00:29 |
| MarkJones | I would personaly ditch inkjet asap | 00:29 |
| MarkJones | Ink costs more per ml than oil. | 00:30 |
| MarkJones | hehe | 00:30 |
| mattwj2002 | lol | 00:30 |
| MarkJones | laserjet babay! | 00:30 |
| Jordan_U | starfruit, To continue where racecar56 left off, just click on the wireless network associated with the SSID ( or create one if there isn't one already ) and check the box to automatically connect | 00:30 |
| racecar56 | starfruit, by the way mostly there is 1 connection called auto eth0 | 00:30 |
| racecar56 | Jordan_U, thank you | 00:30 |
| mattwj2002 | yeah I have a nice HP for printing....I bought this for scanning :) it was only $50 usd | 00:30 |
| fizk | In jaunty, why does shutdown just logout the user? | 00:30 |

| Skapare | what is the difference between the "desktop" CD iso and the DVD iso? just more packages? or does the DVD contain both desktop and server stuff? | 00:31 |
| === nathan is now known as Guest89242 | ||
| starfruit | racecar56, i am checking, thx | 00:31 |
| blackest | hp scanner printers are kind of cheap and work easy | 00:31 |
| MarkJones | fizk: Well this isnt the Jaunty room and there are 2 days left till release and it may be fixed in teh final. | 00:31 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, all SSID are on automatic mode, so i have to disable each one by one | 00:31 |
| Skapare | fizk: you could ask in #ubuntu+1 | 00:32 |
| MarkJones | Skapare: DVD fills the extra space with commonly downloaded packages\ | 00:32 |
| grodius | what term command unpacks a rar? | 00:32 |
| jrib | !rar > grodius | 00:32 |
| ubottu | grodius, please see my private message | 00:32 |
| blackest | jaunty shuts down fine in mine with a sixty second delay which i can click to bypass | 00:32 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: so more packages ... but they aren't installed ... just handy to install? | 00:32 |
| MarkJones | grodius: youll need the unrar package installed and you can use file-roller | 00:32 |
| TopBunny98 | grodius: tar -zxvf file .tar | 00:32 |
| jrib | TopBunny98: "rar" | 00:33 |
| Jordan_U | starfruit, You shouldn't need to disable anything, just create a new connection with the ssid setting you want and set it to automatically connect, it should use that over the others that were automatically discovered | 00:33 |
| MarkJones | Skapare:yep, if you install an app and its packages are on teh DVD it just grabs them from there, unless you instal a newer version. | 00:33 |
| bonez46 | what alternatives exist to replace NetworkManager? | 00:33 |

| MarkJones | or a never version is available | 00:33 |
| Jordan_U | bonez46, Any reason why you want a replacement? | 00:33 |
| jrib | alienkid10: umm, just install ubuntu-desktop, there's nothing to back up | 00:33 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, ok, will try taht | 00:33 |
| MarkJones | welcome | 00:33 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: OK, thanks | 00:33 |
| jrib | alienkid10: you can even just switch between gnome and xfce at the login screen then | 00:34 |
| blackest | bonez46: wifi-radar tends to make things easier | 00:34 |
| MarkJones | alienkid10: Make the switch? Backup your home folder thats about it. | 00:34 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, but there are two SSID in my area, with the same name. will it take mac address of the ssid router? | 00:34 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: I'm just gonna skip making hybrids out of the DVD isos | 00:34 |
| alienkid10 | jrib: I am reinstalling to completely remove xfce/xubuntu and was wondering about the switch to GNOME really | 00:34 |
| kungpowzer | grodius well that made my head hurt | 00:34 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, ok i see | 00:34 |
| bonez46 | blackest: even if I don't have any wireless on my lan? | 00:34 |
| alienkid10 | and nautilus | 00:34 |
| jrib | alienkid10: why? | 00:34 |
| blackest | no not really lol | 00:35 |
| MarkJones | Skapare: Oh you mean like using UCk to make a custom ISO live CD? | 00:35 |
| bonez46 | Jordan_U: my networkmanager icon shows no connection, despite being connected.. | 00:35 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: thanks | 00:35 |
| jrib | alienkid10: I mean why even bother to reinstall. Seems like a hassle when you can just install ubuntu side-by-side | 00:35 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, the reason i have to do it is that, it automatically connects to an SSID with the greatest signal, but that ssid sucks | 00:35 |
| MarkJones | welcome | 00:35 |
| obx | guys | 00:35 |
| Jordan_U | bonez46, Did you connect via network-manager? | 00:35 |
| obx | I really need to know if it's possible to go from fluxbuntu to a stable version of ubuntu | 00:35 |
| blackest | starfruit: are both ssid on the same channel ? | 00:36 |
| bonez46 | Jordan_U: I didn't actively connect that way.. it's just connected.. | 00:36 |
| obx | this is ridiculous | 00:36 |
| alienkid10 | because GNOME is REALLY different and I do want to use it but I want to know if there's anything that can help the switch | 00:36 |
| jrib | alienkid10: if anything, I think having both installed would make the transition easier since you can always run the programs you are used to in xfce in gnome | 00:36 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: I don't know "UCk" ... I'm making hybrid ISOs from the stock ISOs ... hybrids can be used as ISO to burn to CD/DVD ... or can be dd'd directly to USB keys and SD cards | 00:36 |
| Jordan_U | starfruit, BSSID is the wireless equivalent of a MAC address | 00:36 |
| bonez46 | Jordan_U: but yes, I guess I am connected via nm | 00:36 |
| MarkJones | Oh I see. | 00:36 |
| noIdeasOriginal | still same thing happening | 00:36 |
| jrib | obx: ask #fluxbuntu | 00:36 |
| MarkJones | obx: You can go from fluxbuntu to whatever your little hearts conent with. :) | 00:36 |
| obx | there's nobody in there | 00:36 |
| kous | is there a package to make cDVD images from scratch? | 00:37 |
| starfruit | blackest, i don't think so | 00:37 |
| obx | i don't have the capability to burn anything right now | 00:37 |
| jrib | obx: that's the channel for fluxbuntu support, they would know about the distribution | 00:37 |
| The_Tick | is there a guide or anything for switching from os x to ubuntu? | 00:37 |
| kous | or, to delete items inside an image | 00:37 |
| jrib | !install > obx | 00:37 |
| ubottu | obx, please see my private message | 00:37 |
| blackest | obx: most times just install ubuntu desktop and your good to go | 00:37 |
| jrib | obx: that may or may not help you | 00:37 |
| kous | without completely ruining the image that is | 00:37 |
| TopBunny98 | starfruit: Mac addresses are hard coded int the Network interface Adapter so to answer your question no you can not change the mac address of a NIC unless you change out the nic. | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | bonez46, What version of Ubuntu? | 00:37 |
| bonez46 | 8.10 desktop | 00:37 |

| thahauss | starfruit, you can however spoof your MAC address | 00:38 |
| starfruit | TopBunny98, dude, i didn't want to change mac | 00:38 |
| The_Tick | MarkJones: alright :) | 00:38 |
| The_Tick | MarkJones: so I started Growl on os x | 00:38 |
| blackest | starfruit: use wifi-radar if nothing else works and specify the channel | 00:38 |
| The_Tick | is there anything like that? | 00:38 |
| MarkJones | noIdeasOriginal: What didnt work? | 00:38 |
| The_Tick | besides guifications | 00:38 |
| jrib | The_Tick: notifications in 9.04 are like growl | 00:38 |
| The_Tick | there's a central location to manage them? | 00:38 |
| lakin | A long time ago I read an ubuntu (maybe debian) tutorial about a command line utility that listed directory structure in a visual ascii-art sorta way that was suitable for inclusion (as a visualization) into a document that references said structure. | 00:38 |

| Jordan_U | bonez46, What happens if you connect via the pannel applet ( it will probably disconnect you before it reconnects so hopefully we don't lose you :) | 00:38 |
| starfruit | thahauss, spoof my wifi mac? my wlan0 interface? | 00:39 |

| thahauss | starfruit, yes, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu.html | 00:39 |

| The_Tick | I haven't used a linux gui in.. 8 years :) | 00:40 |

| bonez46 | yeah, it's there... | 00:40 |

| jrib | The_Tick: heh, there are some exceptions | 00:41 |
| TopBunny98 | PROject-Emerald: /.filename.sh | 00:42 |
| lstarnes | PROject-Emerald: I think +x is the same as a+x | 00:42 |
| The_Tick | PROject-Emerald: or sh -x foo.sh | 00:42 |

| The_Tick | will he boot me eventually? | 00:43 |
| jrib | The_Tick: hash was broken for version 1 of the firmware, but apple changed it for version 2 and I don't think that's been broken yet | 00:43 |
| jrib | The_Tick: no, but try not to break up what you say with enter | 00:43 |
| The_Tick | ya, I'm not interested in breaking apple stuff, I'll just my old imac or dual boot my mbp or something | 00:43 |
| PROject-Emerald | grr it's not working | 00:43 |
| jrib | The_Tick: personally, I jailbroke mine and just ssh into it | 00:44 |

| Jordan_U | mac9416_2, It's not trivial unfortunately, and I can't walk you through step by step but you are going to want to use pulseaudio | 00:44 |

| darobman | I'm not sure I can ask this question here. Every time I try to install the flash plugin on Firefox on Ubuntu, It installs but the plugin doesnt work. I've tried all three available. Are there any knwon issues. I've tried Ubuntu 8.04/8.10 and now i'm on the RC9.04 | 00:45 |
| starfruit | blackest, why network set up ask me to put a MAC when there's already a field for SSID? is this MAC address a fake one, one to tell the wirless router, that I have fake MAC 00:22:22:22:22 | 00:46 |
| MarkJones | darobman: Where did you get the flash plugin? repositories? | 00:46 |
| dan76 | The_Tick: I have my Iphone syncing with SunVirtual Box. Apparently it will work with OSX | 00:46 |
| jrib | PROject-Emerald: what are you trying to do exactly? | 00:46 |
| kungpowzer | darobman d/l the installer then close all firefox session then run the installer | 00:47 |
| blackest | starfruit: its getting a bit beyond but i'm guessing it wants the mac address of the router you want to connect too | 00:47 |
| starfruit | running "macchanger" will permanently change my mac or just once, during reboot? | 00:47 |
| darobman | kungpowzer, should i download the instlaler form the adobe site? | 00:48 |
| dan76 | darobman: also make sure you don't have any of the other flash player plugins installed just use the adobe one | 00:48 |
| MarkJones | darobman: Just go to adobe.com and dlownload the Ubuntu package for Flash. Its up to version 10. | 00:48 |
| Jordan_U | starfruit, Since the BSSID is basically the mac address of the Access point you are probably right that the MAC option changes the MAC of your wireless card | 00:48 |
| darobman | I'll give those suggestions a try. | 00:48 |
| GillaGal | My new system has 4GB of RAM, but an Intel Q2300 Quad core processor. Should I be installing Ubunutu 32bit still? | 00:48 |
| MarkJones | dan76:jinx :) | 00:48 |
| blackest | starfruit: i don't know why you want to do that unless your jumping on a lan you shouldnt be on | 00:48 |
| starfruit | Jordan_U, or what blackest said | 00:48 |
| shadowh511 | GillaGal: is it a 64-bit brocessor? | 00:49 |
| starfruit | let me reboot and test my config | 00:49 |
| GillaGal | shadowh511 Aren't most newer processors? | 00:49 |
| dan76 | MarkJones: I spent an hour pulling my hair out after I upgraded to jaunty trying to figure out why my flash wasn't working anymore..then I realize I had two flash player plugins competing with each other | 00:49 |
| MarkJones | aha.hehe | 00:49 |
| blackest | GillaGal: i think there is a problem addressing over 3gb ram (however that might be a windows limitation) | 00:50 |
| shadowh511 | @GillaGal try and see if 64-bit works, and if it doesn't, use 32-bit | 00:50 |
| NativeAngels | has anyone tried the desktop versions of 9.04 | 00:50 |
| NativeAngels | or the trial | 00:50 |
| Jordan_U | GillaGal, Depends, Do you use many proprietary apps that are 32 bit only? If so are you willing to setup a 32 bit environment for them? | 00:50 |

| MarkJones | crap | 01:00 |
| MarkJones | private message | 01:00 |
| dan76 | The_Tick: possibly but its always been iffy under Ubuntu and never under Windows | 01:00 |
| The_Tick | dan76: windows drivers could be compensating | 01:00 |
| The_Tick | dan76: is this a desktop machine? | 01:00 |
| The_Tick | i.e. does it have another slot available? | 01:01 |
| dan76 | The_Tick: true. It is a desktop machine and a motherboard based ethernet | 01:01 |
| Jordan_U | dan76, Ethernet card? | 01:01 |
| The_Tick | dan76: if nothing else, go find a 10 dollar nic | 01:01 |
| dan76 | Jordan_U: no its on the mobo | 01:02 |
| The_Tick | might be worth your frustration level | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | dan76, You can try "sudo ifconfig eth0 up && sudo dhclient eth0" | 01:02 |
| dan76 | The_tick: once it starts working it works flawlessly. I just need to find out how to boot it again so I don't have to reboot the whole machine | 01:02 |

| The_Tick | dan76: what run level are you in? | 01:03 |

| dan76 | The_Tick: I run Jaunty | 01:03 |
| The_Tick | heh, I don't know what that means | 01:03 |
| The_Tick | guessing that's some release? | 01:03 |
| Jordan_U | dan76, Have you tried selecting the interface from the network-manager applet? | 01:03 |
| dan76 | but it also happened under intrepid too | 01:03 |
| The_Tick | ya, what Jordan_U is saying is a good idea | 01:03 |
| The_Tick | does ubuntu use runlevels, like runlevel 5 for running the desktop and runlevel 3 for just the console? | 01:04 |
| The_Tick | and 6 for shutdown? | 01:04 |
| dan76 | Jordan_U: clarify ...do you mean is there an entry? | 01:04 |
| misho | j installed xp and intrepid(dual boot),but GRUB wont work when my mice is pluged in usb,in fact j cant navigate with arrows,when mice is unpluged it is ok.What shoul J do? | 01:04 |
| lstarnes | The_Tick: runlevels 2-5 do the same thing by default. 1 is single-user, 0 is shutdown, and 6 is reboot | 01:04 |
| dan76 | The_Tick: oh...sorry yeah, I am in the graphical so 5 I guess | 01:04 |

| BePhantom | iceroot ok :) | 01:05 |
| The_Tick | dan76: so worst case you could see what it does at the runlevel you're at | 01:05 |
| The_Tick | and rerun that process | 01:05 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: depending on your timezone, maybe one day :) 23.04 will the release | 01:06 |
| The_Tick | if you say a reboot always fixes it and you think it's software | 01:06 |
| The_Tick | if that works, just cronjob it | 01:06 |
| AMDfanboy | hi, whats the best way to make a screencast that i can put on youtube of firefox? | 01:06 |
| Doppp | Excited for Jaunty... Will it work with my Asus 1000HE netbook? | 01:06 |
| AMDfanboy | MarkJones, i tried gtk screencast, it was blurry and choppy, know how to fix it? | 01:06 |
| BePhantom | iceroot ok, can't wait for it...i screwed up my ubuntu 8.10 install so i wan't 9.04 asap :D | 01:07 |
| BePhantom | want* | 01:07 |
| === Kissaki is now known as Kissaki^0ff | ||
| dan76 | Jordan_U: I tried the line you suggested...it trys to discover dhcp but finds no leases | 01:08 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: maybe use the rc1 and then upgrade in 1-2 days | 01:08 |
| MarkJones | AMDfanboy: if your doing a screencast did you try GTK-record-my-desktop? | 01:08 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: or use 8.04.2 LTS which i prefer | 01:08 |
| AMDfanboy | markjones, yeah i tried it, its blurry and choppy? | 01:08 |
| AMDfanboy | i wonder if it can be fixed? | 01:08 |
| BePhantom | iceroot i can wait a bit more | 01:08 |
| MarkJones | AMDfanboy: Ive only messed with it once cdoes it have options for resolution and/or bitrate? | 01:09 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: ok :) | 01:09 |
| Jordan_U | Doppp, Not sure but you might want to look into Ubuntu netbook remix | 01:09 |
| dan76 | Didn't there used to be a filter button in the system log viewer? | 01:10 |
| Doppp | Aight thanks. =) | 01:10 |
| BePhantom | iceroot i installed kubuntu-desktop from the repos and it screwed my gnome :D | 01:10 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | does anyone know how to get compiz to run properly on an intel GMA950 graphics? | 01:10 |
| MarkJones | AMDfanboy:Also if your having trouble with reading text cause its blurry a lot of screencasters use some sort of zooming utility to zoom in on text so its readable. | 01:10 |
| BePhantom | and i really hate kde iceroot :D | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: hate is no good word | 01:10 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer i have intel 950 | 01:10 |
| TheFunkbomb | does anyone know how to get the volume control speaker back into the system tray in the upper right hand corner? | 01:10 |
| etzerd | is it safe to install the RC now? | 01:10 |
| MarkJones | Text is hard to read on a 320x240 screencast. | 01:10 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer intel 945 actually | 01:10 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | are you using compiz? | 01:10 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: the problem is that ubuntu is a verby bad distri for kde, if you want to enjoy kde use opensuse | 01:11 |
| AMDfanboy | markjones, yeah i cant see how to change the resolution, but it does let me tweak fps. | 01:11 |
| behappy | top command give me Bus Error what is this mean ?? | 01:11 |
| BePhantom | iceroot kde is so difficult, in gnome i could find everything with a few clicks | 01:11 |
| MarkJones | TheFunkbomb: Right click panel add to panel | 01:11 |
| linkd_ | AMDfanboy, what is your favourite processor manufacturer? | 01:11 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer yes, compiz works like a charm | 01:12 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | BePhantom, did you have to install xgl or aiglx to get compiz to function? | 01:12 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: its not difficult, its just different like linux and windows | 01:12 |
| TheFunkbomb | MarkJones, that only adds it to the Applications/Places/System tray. Not the tray that has the date | 01:12 |
| sachael | do you guys know any more "zen" commands like "yes", "true" and "false"? | 01:12 |
| AMDfanboy | linkd, you guessed it, i guess ;-) | 01:12 |
| jardel | hello | 01:12 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer no, i didnt have to tweak anything, it works by default | 01:12 |
| MarkJones | TheFunkbomb: no it doesnt | 01:12 |
| MarkJones | its movable | 01:12 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | did you just sudo apt-get install compiz | 01:12 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | ? | 01:12 |
| === sisto1 is now known as sisto | ||
| spiel_mit_feuer | i had compiz installed.. but when i clicked on blurry windows, all my windows went black | 01:13 |
| TheFunkbomb | MarkJones, and it doesn't move past the separator | 01:13 |
| BePhantom | iceroot yeah i guess, but i miss gnome :D | 01:13 |
| linkd_ | AMDfanboy, I bet it's ARM. | 01:13 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | i had KDE4 once, hated it | 01:13 |
| TheFunkbomb | uh oh spaghettios | 01:13 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer i didnt have to install anything actually, please write my nickname when talking to me :D | 01:13 |

| spiel_mit_feuer | bephantom, was it pre-installed on your computer? | 01:13 |
| TheFunkbomb | I just did something bad | 01:13 |
| TheFunkbomb | lol | 01:13 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: and why not using it? | 01:13 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer yes, just installed 8.10, it worked out of the box | 01:14 |
| BePhantom | iceroot because i installed kunbuntu-desktop and it removed wicd from gnome, i cant use internet in gnome | 01:14 |
| Jordan_U | spiel_mit_feuer, Can you pastebin the output of "compiz --replace & sleep 20; metacity --replace" | 01:14 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | bephantom, how do you tweak the settings for compiz? | 01:14 |
| Genolo | I need some serious help fixing world of warcraft in wine; the main issue being the ground is red | 01:14 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | uuh.. what? | 01:15 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer there's a compiz manager | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | spiel_mit_feuer, The metacity --replace is just so that if compiz fails you won't be left without a window manager | 01:15 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | whats the name of it? | 01:15 |
| anthony_ | genolo: is ur graphics card strong enough to do WoW | 01:15 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: hm, sounds strange | 01:15 |
| Genolo | anthony_: i think so since when this was a vista and not running ubuntu it ran fine | 01:15 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: look at xfce4 it looks like gnoome but its smaller | 01:16 |
| anthony_ | Check the Wine AppDB | 01:16 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer compiz advanced manager i think, i dont remember search for compiz in add remove | 01:16 |
| noIdeasOriginal | is MarkJones still here? | 01:16 |
| EoL{s} | I have a question about dual booting ubuntu and windows Vista. Does resizing the Windows Partition erase its contents? | 01:16 |
| BePhantom | iceroot yes it does look like gnome but i like nautilus better | 01:16 |
| TheFunkbomb | I fixed it. MarkJones, I had to remove notification manager, put the speaker back up and put notification manager back up | 01:16 |
| BePhantom | iceroot as file manager i mean | 01:17 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | compizconfig-settings-manager? | 01:17 |
| anthony_ | genolo: Check the Wine AppDB for WoW | 01:17 |
| dan76 | how do I go to runlevel 2? | 01:17 |
| iceroot | BePhantom: yes thats right | 01:17 |
| Genolo | anthony_: where? | 01:17 |
| BePhantom | spiel_mit_feuer yes, and there's a simple manager for really easy tweaking | 01:17 |
| MarkJones | TheFunkbomb: cool glad i could help | 01:17 |

| Rob235 | yo, i know this is a total noob question but how do you turn off aliases in pidgin | 01:21 |
| daftykins | maybe your system isn't stable then Dreamglider | 01:21 |

| daftykins | restarted firefox eh macman? | 01:22 |
| anthony_ | genolo: ok. hold on | 01:22 |
| newmember | \join openbsd | 01:23 |
| dan76 | macman: maybe you just needed to clear out the cache and restart | 01:23 |
| MarkJones | Do they call Pidgin problems Pidgin poop? That would be funny. | 01:23 |

| bassliner | jrib: i even run ubuntu on 3 of my servers and if there's one program that would definitely NOT be a reason to switch back to debian from ubuntu server it's bitch-x :) | 01:39 |
| EagleScreen | jpnub you have xsane or kooka | 01:39 |
| usser | jpnub, kooka | 01:39 |
| bassliner | jrib: but nevermind, was just interested in what's going on there, my old irc days started with bx so i'm kindof in a retro mood when i see it hehe | 01:40 |
| jpnub | xsane i think | 01:40 |
| jrib | bassliner: the reason it's not in ubuntu, is purely because it's not in debian | 01:40 |
| mhilinski | what i mean by that is i would like to know if i can scan an image and resize it all in the same application | 01:40 |
| lstarnes | dan76: I'm not sure what to do for that | 01:40 |
| dan76 | lstarnes: poop | 01:40 |
| lstarnes | dan76: check the output of sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 01:41 |
| andreaz | is anyone going to help me :)? | 01:41 |
| smerz | mhilinski: I dont know if you can do it within the scanning program itself (i must be honest, i haven't operated a scanner under linux (yet)) | 01:41 |
| === CoJaBo-A1tec is now known as CoJaBo-Aztec | ||

| lstarnes | andreaz: how much ram do you have? | 01:41 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | mhlinski xsane will do what you need | 01:41 |
| lstarnes | dan76: no, in the terminal | 01:41 |
| andreaz | 1G :/ | 01:41 |
| smerz | mhilinski: but there are dozens of programs you could use to resize images, most likely the scanning program itself should have such functionality | 01:41 |
| lstarnes | andreaz: what about cpu? | 01:41 |
| bassliner | jrib: maybe my understanding of things is wrong there or something | 01:41 |
| noIdeasOriginal | ok last try... would updating BIOS or nvidia geforce stuff make the 64bit or 32bit ubuntu finally install? | 01:41 |

| andreaz | hm intel dual core, i think around 1.8Ghz | 01:42 |

| mhilinski | can you recommand an application so that i can download it and install it a resizeing application | 01:43 |

| lstarnes | andreaz: I'm not sure how good that is for visual effects | 01:46 |
| andreaz | hm | 01:46 |

| Shivam | nevermind I'm an idiot, got it off add/remove applications | 01:46 |
| andreaz | Istarnes:so proberly the problem is on hardware power? | 01:47 |
| usser | Shivam, what does it use? ipsec? | 01:47 |
| mhilinski | you were right | 01:47 |
| usser | Shivam, technically network manager can do most vpn stuff | 01:47 |
| smerz | keepsake: apparrently my networking knowledge is not as good as yours :D. But for firewalling/routing purposes I really like shorewall, I don't know if that helps you at all though | 01:47 |

| s0| | hello, I am wanting to back up my laptop to a windows share on my local net. to test I am trying just one dir, before I do the whole thing, my attempt at a command is "tar -cjvf //username@192.168.1.106/sharename/mybackup.tar.bz2 /home/myusername/desktop" this is not working since it can't write to the SMB... however I am able to see the smb share just find via the gui? what can I do | 01:50 |
| andreaz | lstarnes:anyway, is there any website explaining clearly what i do need and who i should get in touch with? | 01:50 |
| usser | stealth-, or just plaintext files in /var/mail/yourusername | 01:51 |
| lstarnes | andreaz: I'm not sure | 01:51 |
| mhilinski | are you still looking smerzjustt resize and crop | 01:51 |
| smerz | mhilinski: i just installed "mtpaint" | 01:51 |
| smerz | it looks like a simple version of a picture editor | 01:51 |
| stealth- | usser: whats the mail command, btw? | 01:51 |
| usser | s0|, thats not how you do it | 01:52 |
| andreaz | lstarnes:are you here as helper, developer, or user as me? | 01:52 |
| usser | stealth-, its an text-mode email client | 01:52 |
| smerz | mhilinski: yep try "mtpaint" looks good for the job :) | 01:52 |
| s0| | usser, I gather since it isn't working ;P | 01:52 |
| usser | s0|, you need smbfs package, sudo apt-get install smbfs | 01:52 |
| smerz | mhilinski: sudo apt-get install mtpaint | 01:52 |
| lstarnes | andreaz: I am just a regular user | 01:52 |
| stealth- | usser: also, my /var/mail directory is empty :| | 01:52 |
| usser | s0|, then you need to mount the share, sudo mount -t cifs //server/share /mountpoint -o user=yourusername | 01:52 |
| andreaz | lstarnes:ah..ok | 01:52 |
| s0| | usser, even though the gui can see it fine without? odd I will attempt | 01:52 |
| stealth- | usser: but the program obviously ran because I can see the results | 01:53 |
| usser | s0|, gui does a lot of magic | 01:53 |
| s0| | usser, have noticed | 01:53 |
| andreaz | lstarnes: im sorry then..i red somewhere people can join as helper in IRC chats :/ | 01:53 |
| s0| | usser, automagic is nice and curse sometimes | 01:53 |
| usser | s0|, once you mounted the share you can use it as if it was a local directory ie tar -cvf /mountpoint/archive.tar.gz /pathtoarchive | 01:53 |
| stealth- | andreaz: people who help here have no special status, as far as the freenode system cares, were considered regular users | 01:54 |
| smerz | andreaz: nothing wrong with that. You can try and help right here right now. :) | 01:54 |

| aprilhare | i run vidalia and tor but tor starts at startup, fails, then vidalia detects tor already running and dies when i run it during login - is there a way to make tor not start on startup? | 01:58 |
| xerxes | how do i do so, lstarnes? | 01:58 |
| s0| | looking at in the gui ( which says SMB://user@192.168.1.106/share/ ) | 01:59 |
| stealth- | lstarnes: it doesn't appear to be broken. Its a fairly simple backup script with no piping or any rerouting of stout and such | 01:59 |
| racecar56 | im using ubuntu 8.10 and it won't let me install the ati radeon fglrx driver, the hardware drivers thingy says for a millisecond that it's downloading & installing driver, but when it disappears it still says the driver isn't enabled. | 01:59 |
| KoKoRiKo | smerz not really , I can boot in init1 but when i type telinit 3 it takes me to the login screen i need a non graghical mode | 01:59 |
| syntax\ | because as checked on over and over, i can only use one in the resolv.conf | 01:59 |
| usser | s0|, so the command would be sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.106/share /mnt -o user=user | 01:59 |
| usser | s0|, did u install smbfs? | 01:59 |
| s0| | which fails to mount | 01:59 |
| smerz | KoKoRiKo: you could just switch to a text console by using CTRL+ALT+F2. But that doesnt help you right? You need to disable the graphical interface in runlevel3 if you dont want it | 02:00 |
| xerxes | Yes, I think I have the universe repository enabled, lstarnes | 02:00 |
| stealth- | lstarnes: I think i'll try piping the output to a file so I can see if that helps any. Thanks for your help | 02:00 |
| syntax\ | i mean one, if i was to use the intranet dns its only fixated to the intranet. if i was to use the world ip dns its fixated to the world ip | 02:00 |
| lstarnes | xerxes: I'm not sure if that package is in jaunty. try asking about it in #ubuntu+1 | 02:00 |
| KoKoRiKo | smerz indeed, i need to disable the gui on level3 , any idea how to ? | 02:00 |

| foooo | Question: What I write two lines like "ffmpeg -i input.mpg <options> output.mp4" for example only the first line gets executed, it's like I didn't paste another line below the first.

| s0| | usser, (before I attempted the mount) | 02:02 |
| KoKoRiKo | smerz No I cannot | 02:02 |
| KoKoRiKo | I seems that only it is possible in level1 | 02:02 |
| KoKoRiKo | level 3 takes me to the login screen | 02:02 |
| usser | foooo, you cant paste multiple lines in the terminal and expect it to work, try executing them one by one or separate them with && | 02:02 |
| smerz | well im in the GUI now. and i could switch to a text console by pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 | 02:02 |
| KoKoRiKo | Ive been googling for an answer since a week and no luck | 02:02 |
| usser | s0|, does it say anything, any error messages? can you ping that ip? | 02:02 |
| === Blizzerand|Gone is now known as Blizzerand | ||
| KoKoRiKo | smerz yes I know that it is possible but I believe nvidia driver screwed up everything | 02:03 |
| smerz | hmm | 02:03 |
| foooo | If I write something like "for input in *.mpg; do ffmpeg -i "$input" <options> "$output"; done"; This doesn't work either. And it SHOULD work in a script but it doesn't. | 02:03 |
| s0| | usser, pinging the ip works, just says it can't change dir to mount target | 02:03 |
| smerz | so basically you are unable right now you cannot to switch to a text console (by CTRL+ALT+F1 not F2) ? | 02:04 |
| KoKoRiKo | smerz, exactly | 02:04 |
| smerz | thats why you cant it gone in runlevel 3 | 02:04 |
| smerz | makes sense | 02:04 |
| KoKoRiKo | yes | 02:04 |
| smerz | yeah let me google that. can't remember how to ammend that | 02:04 |
| usser | s0|, what do you mean? does the mount command ever finish? are you attempting to cd to the mount point and it fails? | 02:04 |
| KoKoRiKo | smerz thank you | 02:04 |

| KoKoRiKo | smerz, i disable the gui with rcconf ? | 02:06 |
| smerz | and add/move it to /etc/init.d/rc3 | 02:06 |
| KoKoRiKo | ahh | 02:06 |
| s0| | usser, after I hit enter for "mount -t cifs //192.168.1.106/share /mnt -o user=user" the line after immdetetly comes up and says "mount error: can not change directory into mount target /mnt " | 02:06 |
| foooo | No error messages I tried #!/bin/bash -x; I'll pastebin it for more information. | 02:06 |
| smerz | rcconf should be a GUI tool to do the job for you easier | 02:06 |
| usser | s0|, try with sudo? | 02:06 |
| starfruit | _chun, do you mean launch open office from firefox or open it with in firefox? | 02:06 |

| IfTrueElseFalse | where can i find a repository to check out java with aptitude? | 02:16 |

| LjL | !java > IfTrueElseFalse (IfTrueElseFalse, see the private message from ubottu) | 02:16 |
| usser | foooo, it just skips the rest of the loop cause files are already there | 02:16 |
| usser | foooo, same files or files with the same name | 02:16 |

| ubottu | KoKoRiKo: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 02:20 |

| phoenixz | stew: bassliner: thanks! | 02:20 |
| KoKoRiKo | tritium, so what do u suggest ? | 02:21 |
| wgrant | squidly: Many initscripts (at least in Intrepid and later, and more in Jaunty) have a 'status' action. Some of those will indicate the status in their exit code, others (like PostgreSQL's) will also print more detailed information. | 02:21 |

| squidly | starfruit: /etc/network/interfaces | 02:22 |
| nassrat | yeah debian doesnt have the notion of runlevels | 02:22 |
| lstarnes | nassrat: it does | 02:22 |
| eseven73 | Would it hurt my LAMP setup if I install today's LAMP updates? I'm using Ubuntu Server Edition and I really don't want to screw things up | 02:22 |
| wgrant | lstarnes: It does, but they're not used like they are in Red Hat derivative.s | 02:22 |
| starfruit | lstarnes, squidly i don't see wlan0 and eth0 | 02:22 |
| nassrat | lstarnes: i mean like runlevel 3 | 02:22 |
| starfruit | only loop back | 02:22 |
| KoKoRiKo | tritium, I need to install my Nvidia driver and I need to kill x server and when I do so I get a blank screen and the system freezes | 02:22 |
| squidly | starfruit: you make to make them | 02:22 |
| squidly | !interfaces | starfruit | 02:23 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about interfaces | 02:23 |
| starfruit | ok | 02:23 |
| kindofabuzz | eseven73, it's not like they don't test everything. but that's your choice. i'd definatly do any security updates | 02:23 |
| lstarnes | nassrat: by default, runlevels 2-5 are configured to use the same settings | 02:23 |
| squidly | starfruit: man interfaces | 02:23 |
| wgrant | starfruit: In a default desktop installation, network configuration is performed through NetworkManager. See SYstem->Preferences->Network Connections. | 02:23 |
| toddnorcross | I'm incredibly new to ubuntu. I've only used Suse, and that was about two years ago | 02:23 |
| foooo | usser; it continues the first two times then when it makes it past the condition it runs ffmpeg and doesn't read another line. Any ideas? Is this Ubuntu specific since the ffmpeg documentation shows multiple executions of ffmpeg similarly? | 02:23 |
| toddnorcross | I've got some installation questions that I'm hoping someone can answer for me | 02:23 |
| wgrant | eseven73: We are *very* conservative in what we put in updates to stable releases. You should test on a non-production box first, but Ubuntu updates are generally very safe. | 02:23 |
| eseven73 | kindofabuzz, yeah im just paranoid about updates, 90% of the time they screw things up | 02:23 |
| nassrat | lstarnes: what i mean is there is no way of easily switching back and forth from gui to non gui using runlevels. Which IMHO is a valid runlevel | 02:23 |
| tritium | KoKoRiKo: all you need to do to install nvidia drivers is "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx", or use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers. No need for runlevel modifications. | 02:23 |
| usser | foooo, let me actually test with actual video files hang on | 02:24 |
| eseven73 | ok | 02:24 |
| eseven73 | ty | 02:24 |

| zaza | hi there, i got problem with ubuntu 64bit | 02:24 |
| kindofabuzz | eseven73, that's why you should do backups regularly =) | 02:24 |
| starfruit | wgrant, u mean gui for /etc/network/interfaces ... | 02:24 |
| lstarnes | nassrat: you can have gdm/kdm/whatever load up only on certain runlevels | 02:24 |
| nassrat | lstarnes: what do you mean by default. so i can change that | 02:24 |
| eseven73 | yeah I do but still | 02:24 |
| zaza | the problem is when i'm booting there are noisy sound | 02:24 |
| KoKoRiKo | tritium, I am installing nvidia drivers from the website they are up todate now | 02:24 |
| toddnorcross | can someone help me get ubuntu installed on a 32bit pc? | 02:24 |
| wgrant | starfruit: That doesn't use /etc/network/interfaces. It uses a different mechanism which might eventually replace it. | 02:24 |
| kindofabuzz | zaza, like static? | 02:24 |
| wgrant | !ask | toddnorcross | 02:25 |
| KoKoRiKo | tritium, I get this ERROR: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before | 02:25 |
| KoKoRiKo | installing. For further details, please see the section INSTALLING | 02:25 |
| ubottu | toddnorcross: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:25 |
| nassrat | lstarnes: you mean by rm-ing the links or using the update-rc.d | 02:25 |
| nassrat | ? | 02:25 |
| toddnorcross | i burned the ISO to a cd and now it will only boot if I have the CD in the tay | 02:25 |
| lstarnes | nassrat: either | 02:25 |
| tritium | KoKoRiKo: we don't support nvidia.com downloads when there are drivers in the repositories. | 02:25 |
| wgrant | KoKoRiKo: Use System->Administration->Hardware Drivers. That will do everything for you easily. | 02:25 |

| kindofabuzz | akenO, wine <program name> | 02:27 |
| brandon_ | omfg | 02:27 |
| stealth- | akenO: wine output is very confusing, and its likely to be above your head, but you can run it from the command line | 02:27 |
| zaza | stealth- yup .. very noisy sound when loading / booting ubuntu intrepid | 02:27 |
| zaza | okey guys.. got to goy..; chat some other time.. | 02:27 |
| zaza | tq | 02:27 |
| stealth- | zaza: so your noise through the speakers? what kind of noise? | 02:27 |

| Pulgarcito | I have a few logs for Dillions cron with that name | 02:34 |
| stealth- | toddnorcross: if your talking about people getting lectured for repeating the question, what do you expect? If we don't know the answer, we don't know the answer. Trying to keep the channel organized and not full of people repeating their question is not being rude. | 02:35 |

| fearful | crdlb, thanks I'll check that out, if I have problems I'll tell you | 02:42 |
| usser | foooo, good catch there. | 02:43 |
| wgrant | juls4: It might support that, but IIRC NVIDIA do Bad Things™ with overriding RandR modes because of TwinView. | 02:43 |
| TheFunkbomb | could someone help me with Evolution? Specifically, is it okay to use pop instead of imap? | 02:43 |
| god__ | im looking for a driver for my nvidia gfx card. The proprietary one kills my start up | 02:43 |
| kindofabuzz | nassrat, so you're saying someone could still hack my server? they'd still have to guess my password or have my key | 02:43 |
| usser | foooo, why would ffmpeg read from stdin is beyond me | 02:43 |
| wgrant | juls4: You should use the NVIDIA control panel thingy, because they like avoiding standards. | 02:43 |
| crdlb | fearful: gnome-display-properties added it, and all you need to do is remove it | 02:43 |
| picaboo | hi | 02:43 |
| wgrant | kindofabuzz: I just have to sneak up to your laptop when you're not looking. Then I have your servers. | 02:43 |
| kindofabuzz | wgrant, by copying the key from id_rsa.pub? | 02:44 |
| nassrat | kindofabuzz: have your key is the main concern | 02:44 |
| juls4 | wgrant: the NVIDIA x server settings (if that's the NVIDIA control panel) doesn't give me any other options as far as resolutions. only the detected range which is far bellow what my monitor is capable of. | 02:44 |
| wgrant | kindofabuzz: id_rsa, not .pub. | 02:44 |
| jtbandes | How would one go about reading input from a single button connected via USB? | 02:45 |
| nassrat | kindofabuzz: if you have a passphrase, even if they have your key they cant use it, and if you use random passwords then its pretty secure | 02:45 |
| kindofabuzz | nassrat, wgrant well my desktop is not a laptop and the server is in my house too. =) no worries | 02:45 |
| stealth- | would setting up a cron job for my server to automatically update and upgrade be a bad idea? | 02:45 |
| nassrat | kindofabuzz: but the passphrase should be quite long and hard to guess | 02:45 |
| racecar56 | does 8.10 work with a radeon RV280SE? i'm not sure what a RV280SE is in the other kind of models (e.g. 2400) someone says it's a 9200, but i'm not sure | 02:45 |
| wgrant | stealth-: See the unattended-upgrades package. | 02:45 |

| wgrant | racecar56: Ot | 02:46 |
| wgrant | Gah. | 02:46 |
| wgrant | racecar56: That's a 9200. It will work just as well as the 9500, or maybe better. | 02:46 |
| juls4 | god_: not that they've been much help but http://www.nvnews.net/ is a forum for NVIDIA drivers/hardware. They have a linux forum too. | 02:46 |
| wgrant | god__: Unfortunately it's a bit hard, as they are proprietary junk. juls4's suggestion is probably the best idea. | 02:47 |
| racecar56 | wgrant, kk, cool | 02:47 |
| tharmor | is there a known issue today (or recently) with the gnome keychain agent dying? | 02:47 |

| god__ | thanks for the link, but it really doesnt mention where or how to find a driver for this nvidia that wont kill my comp | 02:50 |
| Leonardo_neo | QUIT | 02:50 |
| god__ | does anyone know how to find why this driver is killing me? | 02:50 |
| wgrant | god__: Only NVIDIA is likely to know that. | 02:50 |
| wgrant | god__: You should ask on that forum. | 02:50 |
| kindofabuzz | god__, can you not use the restricted drivers? | 02:50 |
| god__ | no | 02:50 |
| foooo | Nvidia and God. | 02:50 |
| * jtbandes read that as "god no" | 02:51 | |

| god__ | none right now | 02:51 |
| kindofabuzz | is your monitor on? =) | 02:51 |
| wgrant | ubuntunoobneedin: It depends on which virtualisation software you are using. | 02:51 |
| wgrant | god__: OK, so it is the proprietary driver. | 02:51 |
| god__ | well then whatever came with ubuntu se | 02:51 |

| racecar56 | ubuntunoobneedin, right ctrl | 02:52 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | thanks | 02:52 |
| wgrant | god__: Did you use the Hardware Drivers application to install the proprietary driver, then reboot, then find it to be broken? | 02:52 |
| racecar56 | ubuntunoobneedin, i use altgr (i have old keyboard with eurosign on 5 xD) | 02:52 |
| god__ | yes | 02:52 |
| god__ | that is exactky what happens | 02:52 |
| wgrant | god__: OK, so you are using the proprietary driver. | 02:52 |
| god__ | exactly* | 02:52 |
| wgrant | god__: So we can't really help you, sorry :( | 02:52 |
| racecar56 | god__, odd as usually it works better than the official ones O_o | 02:52 |
| god__ | im asking where i can find an open source driver | 02:52 |
| god__ | so that i can get help | 02:53 |
| racecar56 | god__, its builtin | 02:53 |

| god__ | I have nothing to switch back to | 02:53 |
| god__ | i havent changed anything, and when i do change itr goes black, then i wipe my hdd and reinstall | 02:53 |
| wgrant | god__: Because NVIDIA do not release the necessary information to let us write one. There is an ongoing project (Nouveau) to reverse engineer the 3D capabilities. | 02:54 |
| god__ | so, in other words. just fix the resolution and wait? | 02:54 |

| god__ | how can i be the only in the world whos computer gets crashed by a proprietary driver? | 03:00 |
| wgrant | bootio: You could run 'glxgears' and see if it doesn't eat too much of your CPU. | 03:00 |
| pape | vous parlez français | 03:00 |
| wgrant | god__: You aren't - proprietary drivers cause no end of problems, which is part of why they're such a bad idea. | 03:00 |
| racecar56 | glxgears makes my laptop beep | 03:00 |

| god__ | I was going to go back to windows, but xp had more driver problems with my model than linux | 03:01 |

| ^Phantom^ | so i'll have a grub on both drives | 03:27 |
| ubuntu | It does this to me all the time and i never get to install ubuntu | 03:27 |
| ubuntu | why does it never work?@@? | 03:27 |
| rocky_ | lol | 03:27 |
| ^Phantom^ | one i can boot the primary drive's partitions with, on the primary drive | 03:27 |
| rocky_ | Try "manual" | 03:27 |
| jelly-bean | JackWat: ? | 03:27 |
| ubuntu | I dont know how to use manual | 03:27 |
| JackWat | ubuntu: there is an option to use free space on drive | 03:27 |
| rocky_ | you should be able to make an ext3 partition and install to that! | 03:27 |
| ^Phantom^ | and one separate grub on the external, for booting the partitions on that one, when i choose to boot from it | 03:27 |
| ticos | Can I install ubuntu on an external hd and run it using my intel mac? | 03:27 |
| ^Phantom^ | is that possible? | 03:27 |
| ubuntu | JackWat yes | 03:27 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, you want grub to point to another grub? | 03:27 |
| ^Phantom^ | NO | 03:28 |
| rocky_ | but now, does anybody know how to make grub see the windows boot file? | 03:28 |
| JackWat | jelly-bean: there is a command. let me find it | 03:28 |
| JackWat | windows boot file? | 03:28 |
| rocky_ | idk | 03:28 |
| juls4 | what's the command to get a root permission window in terminal? or am I imagining such a thing? | 03:28 |
| rocky_ | Windows is in the list at grub | 03:28 |
| JackWat | you want grub to boot into windows? | 03:28 |
| ubuntu | I only have two option to install it across the whole disk or Manual | 03:28 |

| ubuntu | I been wanting to installl ubuntu for a month but I can get it to work | 03:28 |
| ^Phantom^ | I want to remove ubuntu from the current grub, which resides on my internal drive | 03:28 |
| ubuntu | What is the easiest way to install ubuntu manual, what do i have to create to make it work??? | 03:29 |
| kindofabuzz | !grub > ^Phantom^ | 03:29 |
| ubottu | ^Phantom^, please see my private message | 03:29 |
| ^Phantom^ | then, when i install the 8.04 ubuntu to the external, give the external hard drive IT'S own grub, so it can be used when i choose to boot from that drive | 03:29 |
| ubuntu | Do I have to make a swap | 03:29 |
| rocky_ | JackWat: do you know what to do? | 03:29 |
| ubuntu | Do i have to make a swap | 03:29 |
| rocky_ | ubutnu: not neccesary | 03:29 |
| rocky_ | and don't ask the same question in rapid succession | 03:29 |
| ubuntu | So I can just make on partion any size and install it across and it wont damage windows rocky_ | 03:30 |
| rocky_ | ;) | 03:30 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, so yeah, you can just have the main grub point to another grub, simple | 03:30 |
| pc | rocky_: what happens? | 03:30 |
| jelly-bean | JackWat: thank you! i am hoping it is as simple as that. | 03:30 |
| JackWat|Laptop | rocky_: you can restore the winodws MBR but it will wipe your boot record for ubuntu | 03:30 |

| rocky_ | I'll brb, going to see what it says exactly | 03:30 |
| ^Phantom^ | yeah | 03:30 |
| ubuntu | rocky_: so when i run manual i can just make partion and it will install it there | 03:30 |
| ^Phantom^ | but i'll get the damn error 21 when i have the external drive unplugged | 03:31 |
| ^Phantom^ | put simply, i want each drive to have IT'S OWN GRUB | 03:31 |
| ^Phantom^ | is that possible? | 03:31 |
| ubuntu | Can somebody help? | 03:31 |
| JohnGalt | apparently not. Oh well. Didn't expect anyone would. | 03:31 |
| tritium | ^Phantom^: it's unnecessary | 03:31 |
| ubuntu | has anyone installed ubuntu manual instead lof the othe wayr | 03:32 |
| tritium | ubuntu: sure | 03:32 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ^Phantom^: grub can be installed on your internal drive and point to your external drive | 03:32 |
| juls4 | philh: Okay i'm going to reboot and see if it helps. thanks mate. | 03:32 |
| Stupendoussteve | Yes | 03:32 |
| ubuntu | How do you do it | 03:32 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: have you ever partioned a drive before? | 03:32 |
| arthursena | alguem do brasil? | 03:32 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, it called chainloading, at the bottom of your /boot/grub/menu.lst; first lint will be; title <whatever>, second line will be: root (hd1) or whever your other hard drive is, thirsd line will be: chainloader +1 | 03:32 |
| ^Phantom^ | it ALREADY DOES | 03:32 |

| ubuntu | Jack not on ubuntu | 03:32 |
| spanther | i've heard about a bug in ubuntu 9.04 term ext4 :( is this issue fixed now with the final release coming in 1 day? | 03:32 |
| ubuntu | I have on windows | 03:32 |
| wgrant | spanther: Which bug? | 03:33 |
| ubuntu | Can I just add partion or do i have ot mkae paretion table | 03:33 |
| ubuntu | Jackwat | 03:33 |
| fumanchu182 | where would one find "firefoxrc"? | 03:33 |
| spanther | wgrant the bug where the system freezes while overwriting or so | 03:33 |
| wgrant | spanther: There is a fairly rare freezing-on-deletion bug - no, that is not yet fixed. It is being worked on. | 03:33 |
| ^Phantom^ | but when i have the external drive UNPLUGGED upon boot, grub doesn't load and spits out error 21 | 03:33 |
| rocky_ | I'm back! | 03:33 |
| ticos | is it feasible to run Ubuntu installed on an external hard drive, using my intel mac? | 03:33 |
| kindofabuzz | fumanchu182, whereis ,filename> | 03:33 |
| spanther | wgrant yes thats the one i meant :( mh okay | 03:33 |
| rocky_ | pc: it gives me error 13 | 03:33 |
| ubuntu | If It would let me install where i want with the drag thing I would | 03:33 |
| kindofabuzz | <filename> | 03:33 |
| ^Phantom^ | will pointing to a second grub SOLVE that problem? | 03:33 |
| ^Phantom^ | yes or no? | 03:34 |
| wgrant | spanther: Nobody quite knows why it happens, but people are debugging it. | 03:34 |
| ubuntu | Can someone just tell me the steps to partion and install ubuntu manual | 03:34 |
| rocky_ | I'm going to google a little | 03:34 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: The installer has an option to do manual partitioning. | 03:34 |
| tritium | ubuntu: you add the partitions you want, basically | 03:34 |
| ^Phantom^ | or will i always ALWAYS have to have the external drive plugged in in order to boot this damn machine? | 03:34 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: You don't have to do it before you run the installer. | 03:34 |
| spanther | wgrant there has to be a code bug somewhere. otherwise this bug would be weird ^^ | 03:34 |
| tritium | ^Phantom^: can you please calm down? | 03:34 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, so you have the chainloader in your main grub? | 03:34 |
| ubuntu | I dont want to mess up window partion | 03:34 |
| ubuntu | I have win wit homework on it | 03:34 |
| wgrant | spanther: Of course it's a code bug. | 03:34 |
| JackWat|Laptop | yeah ^Phantom^, you're gonna make tritium cry | 03:35 |
| god__ | Hey I think I found a fix for my gfx card problem, ill give another post if it works | 03:35 |
| ubuntu | do yiou have to create partation table swap or anything like that | 03:35 |
| John_Stamos | i have a dpkg error with python-gnome2 | 03:35 |
| ^Phantom^ | damnit | 03:35 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: I don't think we'd release something that we knew would eat Windows partitions... there is an option right in the installer to resize it. | 03:35 |
| ubuntu | or you just create a partion and your set to install | 03:35 |
| tritium | ^Phantom^: seriously. Cut it out. | 03:35 |
| wgrant | god__: Great! | 03:35 |
| JackWat|Laptop | oh man here come the waterworks | 03:35 |
| ^Phantom^ | will pointing to a second grub SOLVE the "Error 21" problem? | 03:35 |
| ubuntu | Do I create partiton table | 03:35 |
| spanther | wgrant well i think with 9.10 it will be fixed and maybe some tools to defrag will be included :) | 03:35 |
| armence | Hey all, I have a cd which has a file called md5sum.txt which has the md5 hashes for a number of pathes on the CD... Is there a way to basically check all those paths? | 03:35 |
| tritium | JackWat|Laptop: you're not helping | 03:35 |
| wgrant | spanther: It will be fixed in a post-release update for Ubuntu 9.04. | 03:35 |
| ubuntu | it says advanced so i am just trying to make sure everything goes right | 03:35 |
| ubuntu | because i never installed it with out the drag options befoe | 03:36 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, just try it | 03:36 |
| Stupendoussteve | ubuntu: It should have one if windows is there | 03:36 |
| JackWat|Laptop | He's not bothering me. These problems can be frustrating | 03:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | or will I ALWAYS have to have that external drive plugged in | 03:36 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: Why do you want to use advanced mode? If you just want to resize the Windows partition, the Ubuntu installer will ask you if you want to resize it. | 03:36 |
| spanther | wgrant so 9.04 will have a 9.04.1 like 8.10 had ? | 03:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | i'm gonna nuke the external | 03:36 |
| ubuntu | IT NOT ASKING ME | 03:36 |
| racecar56 | 8.10 didn't have a .1 | 03:36 |
| pc | rocky_: I'm not sure I can help much. moving Windows partitions around is an art form... | 03:36 |
| JackWat|Laptop | wgrant: he doesn't want to use his whole drive | 03:36 |
| racecar56 | and 9.04.1 won't come | 03:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | install a new ubuntu to it | 03:36 |
| god__ | "then type into a TTY session ", what does that mean? is that the terminal? | 03:36 |
| rocky_ | pc: lmao | 03:36 |
| rocky_ | well......... | 03:36 |
| tritium | spanther: no, only LTS releases have point releases like that | 03:37 |
| wgrant | spanther: No. the .1, .2 etc are just new CDs releases, and are only for LTS releases. But all the other releases have updates, we just don't release updated CDs. | 03:37 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, yes pointing to another grub should solve it, that grub isn't even read until called upon | 03:37 |
| John_Stamos | "update-python-modules: error: Trying to overwrite gtk-2.0/gconf.so which is already provided by /usr/share/python-support/python-gconf | 03:37 |

| John_Stamos | subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 | 03:37 |

| racecar56 | wow | 03:37 |
| racecar56 | lots of messages at once | 03:37 |

| rocky_ | pc: what I am going to try next /fixmbr on windows recovery console, then reinstall grub | 03:37 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ther eyou go rocky | 03:37 |
| spanther | wgrant ah ok so no updated disc. so i have to wait till 9.10 :( | 03:37 |
| pc | rocky_: usually, I just shrink the existing windows partition, and install Linux after it | 03:37 |
| wgrant | spanther: Why? You can just install and then upgrade! | 03:37 |
| John_Stamos | http://paste.ubuntu.com/155680/ | 03:37 |
| ubuntu | is advanced mode hard to make a single partions and install it with windows | 03:37 |
| god__ | "then type into a TTY session ", what does that mean? is that the terminal? | 03:37 |
| ubuntu | can someone show me where i can get help with this atleast | 03:38 |

| rocky_ | XD | 03:38 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: get gparted live cd and you can make your partitions that way | 03:38 |
| ubuntu | i have been asking for over a week | 03:38 |
| JackWat|Laptop | manually make your partitions | 03:38 |
| ubuntu | gparted?\ | 03:38 |
| wgrant | spanther: The bug only exhibits itself when deleting (or lots of overwriting) files, so you can install and upgrade. | 03:38 |
| pc | rocky_: Windows seems to really like staying on the same partition on which is was installed | 03:38 |
| duffc | final comes out on the 23rd right? | 03:38 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: yes | 03:38 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: System->Administration->Partition Editor. | 03:38 |

| ubuntu | can I use it will under LIVE CD mode | 03:38 |
| John_Stamos | anyone? | 03:38 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: ther eis a live cd. you can setup all your partions the way yo uwant, and then tell ubuntu where to install | 03:38 |
| wgrant | ubuntu: Yes, it's installed by default. In System->Administration. | 03:38 |
| rocky_ | pc: idk | 03:39 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: it is its own live cd. | 03:39 |
| god__ | "then type into a TTY session ", what does that mean? is that the terminal? | 03:39 |
| wgrant | god__: A terminal, yes. | 03:39 |
| god__ | thanks grant | 03:39 |
| god__ | what does tty stand for? | 03:39 |

| ubuntu | i have to install a live cd its not on the ubunto live cd | 03:39 |
| racecar56 | same here.. also wondered what tty stands for | 03:39 |
| spanther | wgrant but if it freezes while installing/updating then because of this bug? :/ | 03:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | how do i get rid | 03:39 |
| wgrant | god__: Teletypewriter. Good old days. | 03:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | wait | 03:39 |
| Mike_lifeguard | When you do some command in terminal that doesn't give you back the prompt, how can you get that to run as a detached process? Is screen the only way? | 03:39 |

| god__ | wow | 03:40 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ubuntu: get the gparted live cd. put it in your drive and boot. it is a partion manager. | 03:40 |
| wgrant | Mike_lifeguard: You can Ctrl+Z and type 'bg'. | 03:40 |
| ubuntu | OK I am in GPARTED in the live CD | 03:40 |
| solexious | How can I clone my disk If I have no cd drive and I cant boot from usb? | 03:40 |

| JackWat|Laptop | That'd always be easier :P | 03:41 |
| DasEi | solexious, if you want a 1:1 copy, you can use cmd dd | 03:41 |
| DasEi | !clone | 03:41 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 03:41 |

| racecar56 | i dont even know how to use pxe | 03:42 |
| solexious | wgrant, back when I had a dd drive to use | 03:42 |
| DasEi | solexious, do you want to copy the whole hd ? | 03:42 |
| racecar56 | i have support for it though | 03:42 |

| JackWat|Laptop | i use ati :O | 03:43 |
| JackWat|Laptop | heh | 03:43 |
| solexious | No and only storage over a network | 03:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | wgrant: ok, now when I try to exit it says there are stopped jobs. | 03:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | would 16~20 gb be good enough for ubuntu? | 03:43 |
| wgrant | Mike_lifeguard: 'disown' | 03:43 |
| genii | ^Phantom^: Yes | 03:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | wgrant: is there a man page for this? | 03:43 |
| solexious | DasEi, No and only storage over a network | 03:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | man bg doesn't exist | 03:43 |
| juls4 | i think i've fucked up my computer. I've got 1680x1050 .. but now I don't have any like boarders on my windows. just the pages within windows. so I can't move anything. it's all static... | 03:43 |
| god__ | i just want to know what else the nvidia is capable of not doing | 03:44 |
| DasEi | solexious, you want to backup files or double the OS ? | 03:44 |
| tritium | juls4: watch the language | 03:44 |
| JackWat|Laptop | juls4: there is a command to run | 03:44 |
| wgrant | Mike_lifeguard: They are built into the shell. Try 'man bash', then search in there. | 03:44 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ah, k | 03:44 |
| juls4 | apologies for language. Jackwat: what command? | 03:44 |
| god__ | hey juls are you using proprietary drinvers for nvidia? | 03:44 |
| juls4 | god_: yes | 03:44 |
| juls4 | god_: they're evil. | 03:45 |
| god__ | yeah | 03:45 |
| racecar56 | juls4, hold alt and drag window | 03:45 |
| god__ | they crash my box | 03:45 |
| solexious | DasEi, The drive is on its last legs so what ever I need to do to move it to a new one | 03:45 |
| racecar56 | juls4, one way to move it | 03:45 |
| Stupendoussteve | racecar56: That doesn't help the borders being gone ;P | 03:45 |
| god__ | i think i might have found a fix for that | 03:45 |
| fatakaa | hi | 03:45 |
| juls4 | racecar56: thanks. | 03:45 |

| micahg | Has anyone used subcommander 2.0b4 against a subversion 1.4.2? | 03:46 |
| tritium | !nvidia | god__ | 03:46 |
| ubottu | god__: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 03:46 |
| god__ | well ive been asking for them | 03:46 |
| JackWat|Laptop | juls4: try this command: gtk-window-decorator --replace | 03:46 |
| racecar56 | solexious, ive never had my hard drive make nutty noises | 03:46 |
| solexious | DasEi, yes I have samba shares setup at the mo, but can so what ever is neded | 03:46 |
| god__ | thanks BOT | 03:46 |
| racecar56 | solexious, the whole computer for that matter | 03:47 |
| god__ | and tri | 03:47 |
| racecar56 | lol matrox | 03:47 |
| tritium | god__: you've been told about System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 03:47 |
| solexious | racecar56, neither me till now | 03:47 |
| spanther | god__ just visit System -> Administration there you find a point hardware drivers or so | 03:47 |
| god__ | no not those | 03:47 |
| syntax\ | I need to use two name servers, the 1st one is an intranet nameserver (192.168.1.1) and the other is a name server from my dsl. I have two NIC's one is for the intranet and the other is for the dsl. eth0 has the ip configuration for my dsl and eth1 has the ip for the intranet. both of which are on static configurations. if i was to set the intranet nameserver on the 1st line of /etc/resolv.conf, then id try to disable the dsl NIC resolving would be ok, the | 03:47 |
| syntax\ | n if i was to try to reup the NIC that has the dsl config and disable the NIC that has the intranet resolving won't work. /etc/resolv.conf has the dsl nameserver on the 2nd line. | 03:47 |
| fatakaa | anyone? | 03:47 |
| god__ | I keep telling you they kill out my boot screen | 03:47 |
| racecar56 | solexious, what will you do to back up? | 03:47 |
| DasEi | solexious, so wheres the problem then ? copy the files over | 03:47 |
| spanther | god__ but they are the working ones precompiled for ur kernel | 03:47 |
| god__ | no they arent, if they were working ones, then they would work | 03:47 |
| JackWat|Laptop | fatakaa: if you're using VNC then yes | 03:47 |
| solexious | DasEi, im not sure what files to copy :s | 03:47 |
| racecar56 | god__, lol | 03:47 |
| juls4 | pc: that worked. thank you. | 03:48 |
| tritium | god__: they do work. | 03:48 |
| god__ | not force me to reinstall the entire os because it cant even render black | 03:48 |
| fatakaa | JackWat|Laptop: what do you mean yes? | 03:48 |
| juls4 | I hope I don't need to go through this every reboot??? | 03:48 |
| racecar56 | god__, i like how you said "if they were working ones, then they would work" | 03:48 |
| === michael__ is now known as unko | ||
| JackWat|Laptop | you asked a yes or no questoin right? | 03:48 |
| DasEi | fatakaa, there are different solutions you can call from cmd-line which will launch a gtk, if you just want a terminal, use ssh | 03:48 |
| god__ | well that was obvious | 03:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | here's my plan of action: 1. remove the current ubuntu entries from grub (which point to external hard drive), so i can boot WITHOUT having to have it plugged in, 2. repartition, 3. install ubuntu to the new partition | 03:48 |
| kb1hzm | anyone know of good ham radio programs for ubuntu | 03:48 |
| fatakaa | yes like i need to desktop login first before i can be able to do remote desktop? | 03:48 |
| god__ | if they are the right ones, then why does my screen go black? | 03:48 |
| jelly-bean | JackWat|Laptop: did you find the networkmanager cmd? | 03:48 |
| JackWat|Laptop | jelly-bean | 03:48 |
| syntax\ | anyone :( | 03:49 |
| wgrant | god__: Because you've found a bug. | 03:49 |
| spanther | god__ which chip is your gpu ? | 03:49 |
| ^Phantom^ | here's a question though, can i create the empty partition from within windows? | 03:49 |
| tritium | god__: you have hardware issues | 03:49 |
| fatakaa | DasEi: i can ssh in my desktop now but i need to do remote desktop and i need the console way to run remote desktop | 03:49 |
| JackWat|Laptop | jelly-bean: iwconfig <interface> mode managed | 03:49 |
| tritium | god__: which driver are you selecting? | 03:49 |
| wgrant | ^Phantom^: You could, but why? Windows isn't awesome at partition management. | 03:49 |
| jelly-bean | JackWat|Laptop: i've seen this one but isn't it for wireless not wired connections? | 03:49 |
| === fernando is now known as Guest9967 | ||
| spanther | god__ tell us your GPU and your driver version used | 03:49 |
| racecar56 | wgrant, your right about that | 03:49 |
| god__ | ok, 3 things, How do report this bug, how do i find out wich chip my gpu is and how can i debug these issues | 03:49 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ^Phantom^: get gparted :P | 03:49 |
| spanther | god__ lspci shows you all hardware | 03:50 |
| tritium | god__: before you report any bugs, we need more info. Which drivers are you selecting? | 03:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | srsly thoutgh | 03:50 |
| jelly-bean | JackWat|Laptop: Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device eth0 ; Operation not supported. | 03:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | though* | 03:50 |
| kindofabuzz | they were serious | 03:50 |
| DasEi | solexious, /home will contain most of your private files, /etc configs, dpkg-get selections > pak.txt generates a list of installed packages | 03:50 |
| fatakaa | DasEi and JackWat|Laptop : i followed this site http://www.samlesher.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-704-enabledisable-remote-desktop-from-the-command-line but still i cant login through vnc client | 03:50 |
| === penC is now known as pyen | ||
| ^Phantom^ | will doing the partitioning within windows mess up grub at all? | 03:51 |
| JackWat|Laptop | jelly-bean: gimmie one second | 03:51 |
| god__ | ok ill go over this again. When i choose the proprietary drivers for nvidia graphics card (i have hp g60 123cl. im not sure of chipset) i get sent to reboot. When I do that the screen goes black at the splash screen and stops there | 03:51 |
| racecar56 | ^Phantom^, i would never use windows to do it | 03:51 |
| tritium | god__: which ones? nvidia-glx-180? -177? -173? | 03:51 |
| racecar56 | ^Phantom^, i highly reccomend gparted | 03:51 |
| pyen | !bg | 03:51 |
| ubottu | опитайте #ubuntu-bg за български потребители . try #ubuntu-bg for bulgarian users, and please idle there patiently | 03:51 |
| racecar56 | i use -180 | 03:51 |
| solexious | DasEi, So if I copy that, then install ubuntu on a new hdd then copy it back? *idiot checking :)* | 03:52 |
| wgrant | ^Phantom^: Windows has a habit of mangling partition tables. People have had it break GRUB. Why not use gparted? | 03:52 |
| fatakaa | anyways if i can ssh to my desktop,how can i loadthe gnome desktop of my user? | 03:52 |
| JackWat|Laptop | fatakaa: i think you still have to be logged in for that to work | 03:52 |
| god__ | it never tells me, i only remember it said nvidia-glx-new. although i did try 177. After i installed the lnux headers because ubuntu forum doesnt mention that you need them | 03:52 |
| god__ | but someone else did | 03:52 |
| fatakaa | JackWat|Laptop: im on ssh on that desktop,how can i login the gnome desktop through ssh console? | 03:53 |
| kindofabuzz | ^Phantom^, you know you can just move your grub to another hard drive, really no need in reinstalling the whole OS, or you could psuedo-install and just skip to the grub part. | 03:53 |
| DasEi | solexious, you can copy /home back, re-install the packages from the list BUT mussn't just copy /etc, but can get the configs out there | 03:53 |
| kindofabuzz | !grub | ^Phantom^ | 03:53 |
| ubottu | ^Phantom^: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 03:53 |
| JackWat|Laptop | fatakaa: you can setup gnome to auto-login. thats what i do. | 03:53 |
| juls4 | I have full resolution now. But when I reboot it starts up at a resolution 1400x150 which is out of range. It's blue/black and has vertical lines down my screen. The mouse continually jumps from top to bottom. It took me about 10 minutes to navigate to NVIDIA settings to reset it (only to find 1680x1050 to my suprise). How do I make 1680x1050 default via nvidia settings and stop it booting in an undetectable range. I don't want to use xandr because that hasn't wo | 03:53 |
| god__ | sorry i crashed | 03:53 |
| tritium | god__: you might want to try -180. | 03:53 |
| spanther | god__ tried typing "lspci" in console and looking for your graphics card? | 03:54 |
| solexious | DasEi, Ok thanks | 03:54 |
| ^Phantom^ | k | 03:54 |
| fatakaa | JackWat|Laptop: i dont want to do auto login as of now i just nee to login desktop login through ssh console but i dont know how and i dont know if it's possible | 03:54 |
| DasEi | solexious, best is then not to mess with usernames (home), else copy just the files, not the whole dir | 03:54 |
| god__ | i typed "lspci" i got alot of info back | 03:54 |
| JackWat|Laptop | fatakaa: that i do not know | 03:54 |
| god__ | what do you need from it? | 03:54 |
| tritium | god__: lspci | grep VGA | 03:54 |
| spanther | god__ just look for the line saying "nvidia" | 03:54 |
| ^Phantom^ | here's what i want to do: remove the current ubuntu install from the grub on my internal drive completely, so i can boot without having the drive plugged in | 03:54 |
| god__ | all the lines have nvidia in them, be more specific | 03:55 |
| pc | juls4: sudo nivia-settings | 03:55 |
| tritium | god__: see my advice above | 03:55 |
| ^Phantom^ | what os do I need to use to do that? | 03:55 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ^Phantom^: take a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:56 |
| god__ | ~$ lspci | grep VGA | 03:56 |
| god__ | 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 0845 (rev a2) | 03:56 |
| ^Phantom^ | (i will log into the chat from another computer) | 03:56 |
| juls4 | pc: sudo: nivia-settings: command not found | 03:56 |
| ^Phantom^ | can i access that from windows? | 03:56 |
| pc | oops | 03:56 |
| god__ | what does that mean? | 03:56 |
| pc | juls4: nvidia-settings | 03:56 |
| JackWat|Laptop | ^Phantom^: if you can access your linux drive you can | 03:56 |
| god__ | im not sure if im even giving the right info here | 03:57 |
| juls4 | pc: Yeah, i'm already in the gui. but how do you make it default? by just selecting it? Should I write it to the xorg.conf file once i've selected 1680x1050? | 03:57 |
| ^Phantom^ | well, it seems i can't access the linux drive within windows | 03:57 |
| ^Phantom^ | i'll reboot into linux, brb | 03:58 |
| jelly-bean | so does anyone here actually have Network Manager working in 8.10 for their wired eth0 ? | 03:58 |
| pc | juls4: yes, write it | 03:58 |

| ablmf | I think maybe it's because I modified my resolve.confg | 03:58 |
| racecar56 | is there a fglrx for ati hd pro 2400 in 9.04? | 03:58 |

| ablmf | Does any one know how to fix it? | 03:59 |
| DasEi | <joanki123 top,htop | 03:59 |
| juls4 | So I guess my card doesn't support compiz at the max resolution. That's a pitty. I liked the new notification system. | 03:59 |

| juls4 | Hey guys, after replacing my xorg.conf file with one NVIDIA settings wrote my pc keeps starting up with 1600x1050 instead of 1650x1050. It's out of range and it kind of makes my monitor go nuts. I've tried selecting both 1650x1050 & auto select (replacing xorg.conf file each time) but it still reverts back to 1600x1050. Any suggestions? | 04:24 |
| pc | juls4: it's not 1680x1050? | 04:24 |
| wgrant | mib_jyrwiwuq: It's on the Jaunty CDs. It works fine. | 04:24 |
| juls4 | pc: yeah sorry, it is. I've just been going at this for hours now. | 04:24 |
| wgrant | seyfarth: Why must you do it from a terminal? | 04:25 |
| pc | one option is to just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand | 04:25 |
| Lasivian | mikechelen: I found what's doing it in top, thanks tho | 04:25 |
| mikechelen | juls4, what nvidia chipset, and do you have the proprietary drivers enabled? | 04:25 |
| juls4 | pc: 1680x1050 is the correct resolution - 1600x1050 is what i'm getting. What should I edit? | 04:25 |
| mikechelen | Lasivian, ok cool, yeah top can have more details that sys mon, also could try htop | 04:25 |

| wgrant | mib_jyrwiwuq: I'm not sure, but you can use the official Ubuntu one. You can see it next to the normal ISOs at http://releases.ubuntu.com/intrepid/, for example. Down the bottom. | 04:27 |

| jcapinc | Scunizi, huh, funny update, it only seems to cause problems when openoffice has focus, and I really dont want to mess with my video drivers, I did before and it was a nightmare to get my settings back, so if thats really all we can come to as the problem I will just deal with it, its nvidia's proprietary crap and not ubuntus | 04:38 |
| juls4 | campee: YEEEEEEEES ...... :/ | 04:39 |
| campee | i changed my resolution to something lower than what it was originally and now i can't change it back. i've tried renaming xorg.conf and generating a new one and it doesn't fix it. | 04:39 |

| TimothyA | http://www.bunny-comic.com/strips/180109.jpg :O | 04:39 |

| campee | juls4: what type of vid card do you have? | 04:39 |
| campee | it made no difference in my case | 04:40 |
| jcapinc | Scunizi, I will try but I suspect there will be few linux users there, thank you for all your help and thought | 04:40 |
| noIdeasOriginal | so i did the partition and then it asked who i was and to fill all that in... so i did but it wasn't letting me move forward. says username must start with a lower case letter which i did... why wasn't it letting me move on? then i hit back by mistake and took me back to partition again and i saw the 35% free space. but it was asking to partition AGAIN... can't i re-choose the partition i did initially or is that lost space now???? | 04:40 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: np.. you'd be supprised.. I've had good exprience there. | 04:40 |

| Scunizi | Kimi: as easy as it looks.. you might try just the first part "quick start" and try it to see if it worked.. if not go back and do the second part | 04:52 |
| Kimi | Scunizi, okk ! B-) thanks | 04:53 |
| Jordan_U | Kimi, If there is a pre-made solution you'll have to find it yourself, if you want to make one just right click the panel -> Add to Panel -> Custom Launcher -> in the command box put "eject -T" ( make sure you capitalize the T or it will always try to close the tray ) | 04:53 |
| === Dominicus is now known as Dominicus__ | ||
| Kimi | Jordan_U, how to close it with the same icon ?? | 04:54 |
| Jordan_U | Kimi, "eject -T" means that it will close the tray if its open and open it if it's closed | 04:54 |
| Kimi | have a q not related to ubuntu........ how do i make others not to use my nick ?? | 04:54 |

| Jordan_U | Kimi, Registering the nick won't prevent other users from using it but you will be able to kick them off if they do :) | 04:55 |
| Kimi | Jordan_U, ok :P i want to kick them off :P :P | 04:56 |
| Jordan_U | Dominicus, That's interesting that the script did not fail, can you try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and confirm that it still fails when called from the removal script? | 04:56 |

| gg | When I boot into GDM, my mouse and keyboard don't work. The keyboard works in the command prompt (when I boot into recovery mode). When I restart HAL from command prompt and enter gdm, the keyboard and mouse work. But if I reboot the computer, it stops working again. | 05:00 |
| Dominicus | Jordan_U: reinstall of aptitude, or acpid? | 05:00 |
| Jordan_U | Dominicus, acpid | 05:00 |
| Guest26730 | reconfigure x.org? | 05:01 |
| Jordan_U | gg, Are you using any non-standard repositories ? | 05:01 |

| Jordan_U | Dominicus, Does "sudo apt-get -d install acpid" download anything? | 05:04 |
| kkkkkk | i installed clamav.. where is it ? | 05:04 |
| Tetracomm | nicholas@nicholas-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy | 05:05 |
| Tetracomm | mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 05:05 |
| Tetracomm | It didn't require that yesterday, what do I do? | 05:05 |
| kkkkkk | i installed clamav using sudo aptget install ....... but where is it now ???? its not in applica ? | 05:05 |
| Jordan_U | Tetracomm, Same floppy as yesterday? | 05:05 |
| Salajadin | try restarting your system | 05:05 |
| Tetracomm | No, a different one. | 05:05 |
| Scunizi | kkkkkk: it's a command line ap | 05:05 |
| kindofabuzz | kkkkkk, there is a gui frontend, foget what's it's called, but otherwise it's just a command line app | 05:06 |
| Salajadin | oh hold on | 05:06 |
| Salajadin | did youinsatll the gui for clamav | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | Tetracomm, Might be a bad floppy if mount can't automatically determine the FS | 05:06 |
| kkkkkk | kindofabuzz, E: Couldn't find package foget | 05:06 |
| Salajadin | type clamav in synaptics | 05:06 |
| kindofabuzz | kkkkkk, the only reason you need clamav is if you forward alot of attachements to windows users and don't want to pass along viruses, otherwise you don't need an AV | 05:06 |
| Salajadin | im sure the gui package for it will come up | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | Tetracomm, Try: sudo mount -t fat /dev/fd0 /media/floppy | 05:07 |
| kkkkkk | kindofabuzz, my windows drives got more viruses | 05:07 |
| kindofabuzz | kkkkkk, that was" i forget what it's called" lol | 05:07 |
| Tetracomm | The other floppy works. | 05:07 |
| kindofabuzz | kkkkkk, apt-cache search clam, it should show up | 05:07 |
| Dominicus | Jordan_U: The deb package was already downloaded, so it didn't have to fetch anything -> http://pastebin.com/d5e81eb7e | 05:07 |
| kkkkkk | kindofabuzz, ok.. i thought its "FOGET" :P | 05:07 |
| blacknred0 | ok, if i would like to upgrade my ubuntu - would it be healthier to do it right after the new release comes out or after a month, once most of the bugs are fixed? OR it doesn't really matter when? | 05:08 |

| {bosco} | ? | 05:09 |
| Scunizi | bitsbam: nope.. did you do manual partitioning? | 05:09 |
| tritium | {bosco}: not until 4/23 | 05:09 |
| blacknred0 | {bosco}, it comes out in 2 days | 05:10 |
| kindofabuzz | tritium, it may be 4/23 where he lives =) | 05:10 |
| Salajadin | gg, try reconfiguring your x.org? | 05:10 |
| {bosco} | i thought it came out on 4/22 | 05:10 |
| tritium | kindofabuzz: not yet | 05:10 |
| kindofabuzz | install the RC of jaunty, pretty much the final, unless some must fix bug lands by the 23rd | 05:10 |
| Cyde | I'm using the apt-get CLI to install mtop. On the first time I tried installing it, apport-qt popped up asking for my root password. I closed it. And now I can't seem to install mtop at all, even if I remove it first. The password prompt never returns. | 05:11 |
| Cyde | Any ideas? | 05:11 |
| {bosco} | tritium, so who knows what time on that day | 05:11 |
| Cyde | It just says this: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 05:11 |
| Jordan_U | Dominicus, Try "sudo apt-get -f install" again and see if you get the same error as last time ( It might be different since you successfully stopped acpid ) | 05:11 |
| tritium | {bosco}: nobody | 05:11 |
| Salajadin | guys which is better? webmin or ebox | 05:11 |
| gg | Salajadin, how can I do that? | 05:11 |
| Scunizi | !webmin | Salajadin | 05:11 |
| ubottu | Salajadin: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 05:11 |
| kindofabuzz | i prefer webmin | 05:12 |
| Viral_Weaponry | :D | 05:12 |
| {bosco} | lol | 05:12 |
| Cyde | Huh, looks like that error is a MySQL error?? | 05:12 |
| Salajadin | but i checked webmin last week and they have deb package for ubuntu | 05:12 |
| tritium | !webmin | Salajadin | 05:13 |
| ubottu | Salajadin: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 05:13 |
| kindofabuzz | Salajadin, i use webmin and have no problems that i can noitce, your choice | 05:13 |
| kindofabuzz | but i didn't know about that above =) | 05:13 |
| Salajadin | hard tochoose ^^ | 05:13 |
| Salajadin | gg, try sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:13 |
| kdask | can anyone tell me when 9.04 goes gold? | 05:14 |
| Salajadin | or | 05:14 |
| usser | !jaunty | 05:14 |
| ubottu | Jaunty Jackalope is the codename for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 23rd, 2009 - Schedule in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule - Lots of breakage between now and April 23rd - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party | 05:14 |
| kindofabuzz | so ubuntu has pretty much strayed away from config file standards? | 05:14 |
| tritium | kindofabuzz: no | 05:14 |
| Salajadin | try sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:14 |
| bitsbam | exit | 05:14 |
| DasEi | kindofabuzz, there is still much, some optional, but basically it#s more in the kernel then in modules | 05:15 |
| kindofabuzz | k | 05:15 |
| Salajadin | guys, if i understand correctly ebox and webmin are like windows AD right? | 05:15 |
| kindofabuzz | i don't know what windows AD is | 05:16 |
| |dthacker| | Salajadin, I would say that ebox and webmin are graphic or browswer based config tools. | 05:16 |
| Salajadin | active directory? | 05:16 |
| |dthacker| | Which configure many linux services. | 05:17 |
| manpoole | why the move to diable ctrl alt backspace from 9.04? | 05:17 |
| blacknred0 | Salajadin, i would say that both are the same, kind of | 05:17 |
| Salajadin | microsoft's active directory | 05:17 |
| gg | from within GDM, how can I exit and go to a shell prompt? | 05:17 |
| Dominicus | Jordan_U: Still not helping any. And with what the uninstaller is trying to do, it tries to kill the process i suppose, and then restart it. Because, it will start acpid up again. If your curious... http://pastebin.com/d1bd050c3 And, from what i'm finding, this is a reported bug since at least 6 days ago, however, it doesn't look as if anyone other than me is so far noticing that they... | 05:17 |
| kindofabuzz | webmin is just a browser based tool to config your server for various things. pretty complete too | 05:17 |
| Dominicus | ...can't aptitude install/remove/purge anything until the issue is fixed. Because, aptitude is being blocked from functioning. | 05:17 |
| |dthacker| | Salajadin: but neither of those are a directory service | 05:17 |
| kindofabuzz | gg ctrl-alt f1 | 05:17 |

| dotblank3 | gg: you can simple use ctl+alt+f1 | 05:20 |
| Jordan_U | Dominicus, One thing you can do is temporarily comment out the init.d script and hope that it is not required for a proper installation... | 05:20 |
| dotblank3 | gg: then run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 05:20 |
| gg | To return to gdm, I can just type "gdm" ? | 05:20 |
| Skapare | back to an old networking problem, again ... I re-installed 64-bit this time ... enabled the proprietary wireless driver ... and installed a recent network-manager from SVN ... these steps got wirless working in 32 bit ... but in 64 bit it is not working and has the same misbehavior that 32 bit had at first, but now in 64 bit even the "fixed" network-manager isn't fixed | 05:21 |
| ammagendut | Dominicus: snow option not show on my compizconfig | 05:21 |
| Skapare | the basic symptom: wireless security settings are not properly fetched from the key ring | 05:21 |

| MarkJones | Oh glad im not the only one wondering that. hehe | 05:24 |
| Jordan_U | MarkJones, jigdo doesn't work for live images, the liveCD has an installed system on it, the alternate is a small installer + all of the packages in the base system which are installed via apt. Jigdo gets the packages from the repositories to build the iso, hopefully you understand why that can't be done with the liveCD | 05:24 |
| morgan | When I plug in my ipod to the usb I can see the songs on there but when I turn on the ipod it doesnt haave them, any ideas? | 05:24 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: I was guessing maybe they didn't want people to create their own ISO in certain cases | 05:24 |
| Scunizi | erka: probably a soft modem.. there is a site that talks about different modems and their compatibility as well as recommended drivers or non-functionality.. I gave up on the 6 internals that I have lying around and one external 9pin serial Motorola..I bought an external usrobotics usb, small white no power supply needed. | 05:24 |
| dotblank3 | gg: hmm I don't really know.. | 05:25 |
| Scunizi | erka: one thing you might try is opening a terminal and typing dmesg, then plug in the modem and type dmesg again and see what the reference it for it.. it might be a totally different mount point than you think it is | 05:25 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: know anything about the network manager with respect to wireless security settings? | 05:25 |
| MarkJones | Ok thats what i figured. I know that the alternate installer images are for a text based installer.Ok at least i know now for sure.Thank you very much. | 05:25 |

| === _Ranakah is now known as Ranakah` | ||

| MarkJones | Umm no I have no experience with wirelesss and linux at all. Ive only heard of not so good linux wireless suport and that some people are using something to wrap windows drivers to work on linux. | 05:26 |

| Salajadin | wow im new in IRC stuff and i love this place already! | 05:28 |
| Skapare | MarkJones: seems to be a 32-bit vs. 64-bit issue ... actually the base network-manager in 8.10 is buggy reading wireless security settings ... a very recent .deb from SVN someone suggested fixed it ... so I now switch to 64-bit and do all the same but this time the new .deb (yes, 64-bit version of it) does not fix it | 05:28 |

| MarkJones | thats cooler | 05:33 |
| zhurai | <MarkJones> wonder if the next ubuntu is a kangaroo <-- 9.10?.... 9.10 = Karmic Koala o/ | 05:33 |

| tritium | Skapare: yes | 05:35 |
| nephish | Scunizi: yes, manual partitioning | 05:36 |
| zhurai | <Skapare> zhurai: so that means the short name will be "karmic" ? <-- don't ask me, I'm not a dev (yet? atm? o/) | 05:36 |
| Skapare | it seems the names people are using are the adjective parts of the full names | 05:36 |
| nephish | Scunizi: thats why so weird, all media, songs, movies, etc.. are on their own drive | 05:36 |
| tritium | Skapare: yes. I know, it doesn't make grammatical sense. | 05:37 |
| Scunizi | nephish: wow.. that only took 15+ minutes :) I'm suprised you found my post.. how large did you make your /home? | 05:37 |
| Skapare | like "jaunty" instead of "jackalope" | 05:37 |

| MeI | tritium, i have the newest version already installed | 05:40 |
| zhurai | bwm: depends | 05:40 |
| Skapare | I wonder if I should set up a dual-boot system ... 32 bit and 64 bit | 05:41 |
| MeI | tritium, weird, how can i check what other programs are trying to handle my flash videos? | 05:41 |
| erka | I might just have to do that. She can learn a little patience anyhow. I mean, she still uses dial up so I'd figure she'd be good at that already :) | 05:41 |
| tritium | MeI: it should work, then. Ask in #ubuntu+1, since juanty isn't supported here for 2 more days. | 05:41 |
| Salajadin | get a vm | 05:41 |
| michasb | Basically, I'm wondering how to change OpenLDAP's configuration if there isn't a slapd.conf and cn=config isn't setup (at least it's not showing in slapcat and I didn't get asked for a password). | 05:41 |
| Salajadin | skapare try virtualbox | 05:41 |
| KyleK | 2 days? so like thurs? friday? | 05:42 |
| MeI | tritium, ok thanks | 05:42 |
| tritium | KyleK: 4/23 | 05:42 |
| nephish | Scunizi: yes, root folder is 25GB | 05:42 |
| KyleK | okay thurs | 05:42 |
| Tetracomm | Good night. | 05:42 |
| tritium | MeI: it should be the flashplugin, however | 05:42 |
| Salajadin | michasb, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 05:42 |
| Scunizi | nephish: and you didn't setup a /swap? 25gigs should be plenty.. installed the system with software is around 4 gigs.... | 05:43 |
| Scunizi | nephish: maybe 6 at the most | 05:43 |

| Skapare | will jaunty support move to this channel after juanty is officially released? | 05:44 |
| tritium | Skapare: yes | 05:44 |
| === sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick | ||
| Skapare | is wondering if he should bother with the RC or not | 05:45 |
| michasb | Salajadin: Thanks. I'm assuming installing eBox will allow me to configure the new OpenLDAP. I'll check it out. | 05:45 |
| bwm | zhurai: should I just be patient? | 05:45 |
| Salajadin | yep im checking it too | 05:46 |
| nephish | Scunizi: Oh, i did set up a swap, sorry | 05:46 |
| * Skapare hates to download 2 ISOs and then download 2 more in 2 days (testing i386 and amd64) | 05:46 | |
| nephish | Scunizi; and yeah, i usually have a few gigs after a new install. Just wondering what may have gone wrong. | 05:46 |
| Salajadin | and it manages lots of config files usually used in networks | 05:46 |
| zhurai | you don't HAVE to dl the ISOs, technically if you are on 8.10, you can dist-upgrade | 05:46 |
| tritium | Skapare: you can rsycn the RC, and then rsycn the delta info on release day | 05:46 |
| tritium | (Or, simply update regularly after installing the RC.) | 05:47 |
| michasb | Skapare: run the Update Manager in Ubuntu once Jaunty is officially released. There is no need to download the ISOs again. | 05:47 |
| zhurai | as well as if you have the RC's you should just be able to regular update to latest... | 05:47 |
| gg | GDM doesn't respond to mouse or keyboard unless I boot in recovery mode, " Drop to root shell prompt", restart the HAL, and run GDM. | 05:48 |
| tritium | !repeat | gg | 05:48 |
| ubottu | gg: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 05:48 |
| Salajadin | gg | 05:48 |
| Skapare | michasb: I'll be installing on several machines ... I don't want all of them to be working that way ... I will want the final ISO | 05:48 |
| Salajadin | are you in recovery mode | 05:48 |
| gg | I've tried both ways, Salajadin. | 05:48 |
| tritium | Skapare: then use rsync as I described above | 05:48 |
| Salajadin | so where are you now? | 05:48 |
| gg | shell of recovery mode. | 05:49 |
| michasb | Skapare: try apt-proxy or rsync as tritium suggests | 05:49 |
| ballisox | is anyone running the latest version of gadmin-proftpd in ubuntu 8.10 or Jaunty RC? If so are you able to locate the "generate certificate button" anywhere in the GUI? | 05:49 |
| Skapare | tritium: I was just asking that in +1 ... missed your earlier message | 05:49 |
| bullgard4 | 'smbtree' no longer produces output. How can I fix that? Setting in /etc/samba/smb.conf 'loglevel = 4' obtains many messages (http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394831/) but none has led me so far to the error. /etc/samba/smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/f7615f1cc | 05:49 |

| yakobmatrix | I am having problem with cooliris for linux | 05:49 |
| yakobmatrix | it says I need to update my openGL | 05:50 |
| Salajadin | gg, try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:50 |
| yakobmatrix | any suggestion? | 05:50 |
| Salajadin | try it inside recovery or any tty's | 05:50 |
| WebDawg | how do i change the ssh port? | 05:50 |
| * Skapare doesn't see the rsync url posted | 05:50 | |
| gg | Alright, I see the file, Salajadin | 05:51 |
| tritium | WebDawg: configure it in /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 05:51 |
| Skapare | tritium: I guess I didn't get that message to my client, can you give the URL again? | 05:51 |
| tritium | Skapare: which URL? | 05:51 |
| Salajadin | hoorah | 05:51 |
| Skapare | rsync | 05:51 |
| tritium | Skapare: I hadn't sent one. It was merely a suggestion. | 05:52 |
| Salajadin | gg, does it say anything about your keyboard | 05:52 |
| Salajadin | or mouse | 05:52 |
| Saiki | hey guys, can someonehelp e install the nvidia modual on my xubuntu install? | 05:52 |
| Skapare | tritium: oh ... well I don't know where to get it ... then I guess my question stands on #ubuntu+1 | 05:52 |
| gg | Salajadin, no. | 05:52 |
| Salajadin | saiki, iinstall envy | 05:52 |
| tritium | Skapare: /msg ubottu rsync for general info | 05:52 |
| Salajadin | oh no | 05:52 |
| tritium | Saiki: no, don't | 05:53 |
| Saiki | it didn't work | 05:53 |
| tritium | !envy | 05:53 |
| ubottu | EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia drivers, which can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" or "envyng-qt". It is NOT a supported method to install them; please only use it at your own risks if standard methods fail - See !nVidia | 05:53 |
| Salajadin | well envy worked for me | 05:53 |
| Saiki | well, I tried the nvidia.run and it keeps failing | 05:54 |
| Salajadin | i know theres aneasy standard way to install nvidia but i forgot | 05:54 |
| tritium | Saiki: if you use envy, do so at your own risk, unless Salajadin is willing to provide you technical support (we don't here) | 05:54 |
| tritium | Salajadin: System -> Adminisration -> Hardware Drivers | 05:54 |
| Salajadin | yep thats it | 05:54 |
| Skapare | tritium: that's not giving me the URL for the rsync of the ISO ... just general info on rsync (I already know that) | 05:54 |
| tritium | Skapare: as I said, yes | 05:55 |
| Salajadin | and theres also installing from synaptic or maybe it was in the terminal | 05:55 |
| Salajadin | hmmmmm | 05:55 |
| Skapare | tritium: rsync doesn't do much good not knowing where to get the ISO that way | 05:55 |
| Saiki | not willing to use envy | 05:55 |
| Salajadin | gg, | 05:55 |
| WebDawg | tritium i did | 05:55 |
| tritium | !download | Skapare | 05:55 |

| === mike is now known as Guest36579 | ||
| Guest36579 | Hey guys, i hope i can ask everyonesomething | 06:03 |
| Demersus | I have a question about installing legersmb. Anyone willing to help? | 06:03 |
| Guest36579 | i'm a total noob that has always wanted to try linux took the plug earlier today. guys i've been researching but can someone help me to where to start? | 06:04 |
| Guest36579 | such as finding drivers. | 06:04 |
| Guest36579 | i did searches for pc models. but no luck on that | 06:04 |
| Guest36579 | do i look for the actual driver itself? | 06:04 |
| jert | Guest36579: what drivers are you looking for? | 06:04 |
| kindofabuzz | Guest11562, drivers for what? the linux kernel replaces the need for drivers | 06:04 |
| Guest36579 | driver for dell xps | 06:05 |
| Guest36579 | 410 | 06:05 |
| kindofabuzz | ? what peice of hardware? | 06:05 |
| tritium | Guest36579: for which hardware? | 06:05 |
| jert | Guest36579: it looks like your video and network drivers are functioning | 06:05 |
| Demersus | Guest36579: What is not working correctly? | 06:05 |
| Guest36579 | that the questions i hope u can answer. | 06:05 |
| Guest36579 | do i search for each individual hardware | 06:05 |
| Guest36579 | such as 8800gtx | 06:05 |
| jert | only if its not working | 06:06 |
| tritium | Guest36579: the vast majority of hardware is supported without the need for "drivers". Some people like proprietary nvidia or ati graphics, for example, but otherwise, most things "just work". | 06:06 |
| Guest36579 | oooo | 06:06 |
| Guest36579 | okay good to know | 06:06 |
| === Guest36579 is now known as mike | ||
| jert | haha its very simple now mike, welcome | 06:06 |
| tritium | Guest36579: in the case of nvidia, if you want the proprietary drivers, use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 06:06 |
| mike | thanks im excited! | 06:07 |
| mike | =) | 06:07 |
| === mike is now known as Guest44425 | ||
| Saiki | why doesn't the nvidia*.run work? | 06:07 |
| Guest44425 | hmm my sn keep changing | 06:07 |
| tritium | Guest44425: if you don't have a strong need for the proprietary drivers, I might suggest you not bother, if the open source driver is working for you. | 06:07 |
| Demersus | LedgerSMB anyone? | 06:07 |
| tritium | Saiki: we don't support nvidia.com downloads. We have nvidia drivers in the repos. | 06:08 |

| Makaveli | helloo | 06:09 |
| jert | a few months now, still very much a newb here | 06:10 |
| Skapare | tritium: how about the vast majority of laptop wireless cards ... do those need "drivers" (I assume you mean the proprietary ones that have to be installed) | 06:10 |
| mike__ | Does any have any must have app for linux? | 06:10 |
| flippo | mike__, you want a sum total, a median, or a mode? | 06:10 |
| Saiki | tritium: true, but they weren't installing earlier for me | 06:10 |
| bwm | anyone available? I'm trying to troubleshoot sound not working on a Dell Inspiron 1525, recently up to 8.04 | 06:10 |
| Demersus | mike__: I have used it exclusively for 3 years | 06:10 |
| mike__ | =P | 06:10 |
| tritium | Skapare: wireless can be a little more problematic, and depends greatly on the hardware you have. | 06:10 |
| Skapare | tritium: mine needed the proprietary driver in 8.10 | 06:10 |
| Makaveli | 1 day :) | 06:10 |
| jert | mike__: depends, what do you use your computer for? | 06:10 |
| Skapare | tritium: fortunately it was on the ISO | 06:11 |
| mike__ | ah very nice. I'm a technician for a school and they have been telling me to upgrade to linux already | 06:11 |
| mike__ | well i'm currently trying to figure this operating system out right now | 06:11 |
| mike__ | but currently my school uses novell | 06:11 |
| mike__ | so it will be for server base | 06:11 |
| Demersus | mike__: Linux is a very rewarding path to take | 06:11 |
| Skapare | tritium: that driver plus a new network-manager from svn ... got wireless working in 32-bit ... but not in 64-bit | 06:11 |
| ^Phantom^ | i swear to god, if i get the "not compatible with your computer type (i386). or the vendor decided not to support your computer type" message on everything i try to install, i'll scream loud enough to wake up dead people in their graves | 06:11 |
| jert | ^Phantom^: still having those problems? :( | 06:12 |
| tritium | ^Phantom^: I've asked you before not to swear. Please remain calm. | 06:12 |
| mike__ | cant wait to get my hands dirty.. i'm a bit confuse though for all the "experts here" | 06:12 |
| MarkJones | Hmm first impression of Jaunty is nice. | 06:13 |

| eso | any ideas on how i can uninstall skype after i installed a version not meant for me? | 06:41 |
| MarkJones | try your monitor controls | 06:41 |
| MarkJones | eso: synaptic package manager | 06:41 |
| eso | not listed in synaptics or anthing | 06:41 |
| MarkJones | if its not listed it aint installed | 06:41 |
| eso | how come i use it then? | 06:42 |
| brandonmpace | sometimes the tar.gz you installed from has an uninstaller | 06:42 |
| brandonmpace | or if you used a script, same thing | 06:42 |
| eso | it was a .deb | 06:42 |
| brandonmpace | ah | 06:42 |
| Saiki | MarkJones: I tried, no luck | 06:42 |
| tritium | eso: sounds like it wasn't packaged properly. synaptic should see it | 06:43 |
| kb0odu | eso: Can you use dselect to remove it or dpkg? | 06:43 |
| Saiki | eso: add it t synaptic | 06:43 |
| unop | eso, sudo aptitude remove skype | 06:43 |
| MarkJones | Saiki: What did you install and what makes you think its wrong? | 06:43 |
| brandonmpace | then go sudo dpkg -r <packagename | 06:43 |
| Saiki | the 180 driver | 06:43 |

| matholum | hello everyone... I have googled this but have found no specific answer.... I am trying to install ubuntu on an older computer and I keep getting different errors. Sometimes it is a crc error - system hault... and most of the time I get a kernel panic con't read block (x,y) error... any idea what is wrong? I though it was the memory but i took a 512 stick from a working computer and I get the same thing.... | 06:44 |
| brandonmpace | synaptic doesn't see a lot of 3rd party .deb's cause they're not packaged right | 06:44 |
| BladeNBrocade | matholum: sounds like a hdd issue | 06:44 |
| matholum | would reformatting help? | 06:45 |
| BladeNBrocade | could be memory as well | 06:45 |
| MarkJones | matholem I sent you a private message to help you. | 06:45 |
| Saiki | ok, now how do I mae it use the entire screen? (it' only using 3/4 atm) | 06:45 |
| MarkJones | Saiki: Did you check your monitor controls? | 06:45 |
| Saiki | yes | 06:46 |
| Saiki | the nvidia*.run fixes it, but why not the ubuntu one? | 06:46 |
| Salajadin | saiki, maybe because nvidia is proprietary | 06:48 |
| Saiki | possibly, but their run works | 06:49 |

| Flannel | phoe6: In single user mode, you only need to use "visudo" instead of "sudo visudo" | 07:29 |
| BladeNBrocade | hmm Salajadin did u take a peek at the logs? | 07:29 |
| Saiki | Salajadin: it deactivated itself, I reinstalled it | 07:30 |
| phoe6 | visudo : /etc/sudoers: Read-only file system | 07:30 |
| phoe6 | is the error I am getting. | 07:30 |
| Salajadin | blade i did | 07:30 |
| Saiki | phoe6: sudo it | 07:31 |

| BladeNBrocade | phoe6: did u just edit that file and this happend? | 07:31 |
| Salajadin | blade do you think saiki should tr envy? | 07:31 |
| Salajadin | blade do you think saiki should trY envy? | 07:31 |
| mikechelen | anita20, do you have proprietary driver enabled in system-> admin -> hardware drivers? | 07:31 |
| phoe6 | BladeNBrocade: I edited while logged as my user. | 07:31 |
| BladeNBrocade | i think he should review or post his xorg | 07:32 |
| DasEi | anita20: which monitor ? | 07:32 |
| phoe6 | right now I am in single user mode, | 07:32 |
| BladeNBrocade | phoe6: i figured that... | 07:32 |
| Saiki | great... bios noise! | 07:32 |
| anita20 | it´s a packard bell, don't know much about it, it had 1024*768 in WinXP | 07:32 |
| Salajadin | th? | 07:32 |
| phoe6 | I cannot do sudo /usr/sbin/visudo /etc/sudoers too. | 07:32 |
| phoe6 | throws a screenfull of errors | 07:32 |
| Saiki | I can post my xorg if you guys want | 07:32 |
| Flannel | phoe6: You're in single user mode, you don't need to sudo. Just visudo | 07:32 |
| anita20 | I'm downloading such driver | 07:32 |
| DasEi | anita20: if you got 7minutes, I'll boot another comp and give you an xorg ? | 07:33 |
| Salajadin | post it | 07:33 |
| mikechelen | anita20, probably enabling proprietary driver will help, if that doesn't work you may want to use an older version driver | 07:33 |
| phoe6 | Flannel: if I just do visudo; I get Readonly file system error. | 07:33 |
| Saiki | sec, it's rebooting and being noisy lol | 07:33 |
| anita20 | I would like a xorg yes, so I can try it out. i tried some from forums which didn´t work | 07:33 |
| slap_stick | hey, is gutsy no longer a supported dist? what is the next one to upgrade to? | 07:33 |
| BladeNBrocade | phoe6: u need to edit ur boot prompt to be "init=/bin/bash" it appears | 07:33 |
| Saiki | hardy lts | 07:33 |
| phoe6 | I did that to enter into single user mode. | 07:33 |
| DasEi | anita20: brb | 07:33 |
| Flannel | slap_stick: gutsy hasn't been supported for six months. Gutsty upgrades to Intrepid (7.10) which went EOL a week ago, which upgrades to 8.04. | 07:34 |
| Salajadin | blade | 07:34 |
| BladeNBrocade | and remove any bad characters u added in it and save it.. | 07:34 |

| anita20 | thanks dasei | 07:34 |
| drinkycrow | flash plays ok | 07:34 |
| drinkycrow | but the sound doesn't | 07:34 |
| slap_stick | cool, so if i change my sources to point to the gutsy dist and do an update and an upgrade, that will do the trick? | 07:34 |
| Saiki | Flannel: you mean hardy, right? | 07:34 |
| phoe6 | BladeNBrocade: I am over init=/bin/bash; but it does not been go into visudo /etc/sudoers | 07:34 |

| inasmu | palmje: they only allow certain mac addresses? | 08:34 |
| BladeNBrocade | lol no thats why i use tab | 08:34 |
| BladeNBrocade | my life consists of tab completion and copy and pasting | 08:35 |
| palmje | inasmu: Its my own wireless router and it has all security turned off... | 08:35 |
| mchelen1 | Yay that worked, broken dist-upgrade messed up the net config | 08:35 |
| BladeNBrocade | cool | 08:35 |
| inasmu | palmje: you have dhcp turned on for the router? | 08:35 |
| Salajadin | great | 08:35 |
| palmje | inasmu: yes | 08:35 |
| Salajadin | i cant use my tab because my fingers cant reach it | 08:35 |

| Fersure | Hey. I can't seem to get my screen resolution bigger than 800x600 in Ubuntu 8.10. The xorg ATI driver is installed (which is correct). Also, I'm running Ubuntu in a VM. (Incase that makes any difference) | 08:37 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: j/p | 08:37 |
| Saiki | lol | 08:37 |
| Saiki | my screen is a 22" widescreen | 08:37 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: so ur still not properly loading nvidia drivers huh? | 08:37 |
| inasmu | palmje: where does the network connection fail? | 08:37 |
| BladeNBrocade | and ur display is 10" | 08:37 |
| Salajadin | can you check glxinfo | 08:37 |

| BladeNBrocade | i agree.. i still think nvidia hasn't installed properly.. have u re acquired the driver and tried again or is it the same driver u just been uninstalling and reinsalling? | 08:39 |
| Saiki | I want to use it all :@ | 08:39 |
| Saiki | like it was before | 08:39 |
| BladeNBrocade | =( | 08:39 |
| BladeNBrocade | before the upgrade? | 08:39 |
| Salajadin | saiki run glxinfo and glxgears | 08:39 |
| palmje | inasmu: I tell it to connect and it sits there says "attempting to join wireless network 'linksys'" and gets no further | 08:39 |
| Saiki | out of nowhere got the type1 error | 08:39 |
| Saiki | glx missing | 08:40 |
| Salajadin | wtf | 08:40 |
| BladeNBrocade | hmm | 08:40 |
| Fersure | Anyone know if I need to do anything else? The driver for my video card is installed. Yet the screen resolution just won't go bigger than 800x600. ._. | 08:40 |
| Salajadin | you havent installed it correctly | 08:40 |
| BladeNBrocade | agreed | 08:40 |
| Saiki | figures.. | 08:40 |
| Salajadin | edit your x.org config | 08:40 |
| Salajadin | fersure | 08:40 |
| Salajadin | edit your x.org config | 08:40 |
| Saiki | I folloed the guide to the letter | 08:40 |
| Ademan | is there a convenient way to prevent gnome-terminal -x echo "Whatever" from closing? something similar to, i believe, the pause command in windows (prompts with 'press any key to continue' and blocks until then) | 08:40 |
| Fersure | Salajadin, where is that located? Can't remember off-hand. | 08:41 |
| Salajadin | Ademan | 08:41 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: this is why i dont trust this envy stuff | 08:41 |
| Salajadin | command | more | 08:41 |
| Salajadin | command | less | 08:41 |
| Saiki | lol xorg.conf is blank | 08:41 |
| Salajadin | LOL | 08:41 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: installing drivers are easy if ur hardware fits them,, | 08:41 |
| Ademan | Salajadin: I suppose that works, thanks | 08:41 |
| Salajadin | no prob | 08:41 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: what is your method of booting without starting X? | 08:41 |
| Saiki | it booted | 08:42 |
| gm|lap | erm... lemme try rewording... | 08:42 |

| BladeNBrocade | k | 08:42 |
| Saiki | I have xorg open now | 08:43 |
| BladeNBrocade | and this is when the driver is completely removed no? | 08:43 |
| inasmu | palmje: if your router doesn't have any important configuration on it, I'd say try to reset that and try again | 08:43 |
| BladeNBrocade | close it for now.. i dont think xorg is ur issue here | 08:43 |
| Saiki | ya | 08:43 |
| Ademan | gm|lap: what are you trying to do? get your atheros card working? | 08:43 |
| gm|lap | yeah | 08:43 |
| Ademan | gm|lap: have you looked at the ubuntu wiki pages for atheros? | 08:43 |
| Salajadin | Fersure hsudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:44 |

| Salajadin | Fersure: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83973.html | 08:45 |
| Saiki | yay! it's back! | 08:45 |
| lirvan | hello | 08:45 |
| BladeNBrocade | <<lost again>> | 08:45 |
| gm|lap | i can tell you that ubuntu 8.10 was installed after about 4 different unices failed to install properly | 08:45 |
| Saiki | who thought a driver could be so damn hard :@ | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | including ubuntu 8.04 | 08:46 |
| BladeNBrocade | so the re install from root console did work? | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | do you have something like debian's module-assistant? | 08:46 |
| Ademan | gm|lap: so fairly recent probably? one sec, lemme poke around, I had an atheros card, lemme get you the resources I used, are you comfortable with the command line? | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | yes | 08:46 |
| Salajadin | i tot she already did that? | 08:46 |
| BladeNBrocade | reinstall and reconfig.. | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | considering that i have installed netbsd to a usb stick | 08:46 |
| Salajadin | imean he | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | before | 08:46 |
| Saiki | Ademan: I use ndiswrapper for mine | 08:46 |
| BladeNBrocade | lol he | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | and that requires a lot of commandline. | 08:46 |
| gm|lap | i use freebsd on my desktop. | 08:47 |
| BladeNBrocade | i love freebsd | 08:47 |
| Ademan | Saiki: I used the ath5k driver | 08:47 |
| ^Phantom2^ | this is so cool | 08:47 |
| ^Phantom2^ | thanks guys :D | 08:47 |
| * BladeNBrocade remembers working @ cheap web hosting companies using FreeBSD | 08:47 | |
| ^Phantom2^ | my foot and leg are asleep so i need to take a walk lol | 08:47 |
| Saiki | Ademan: I couldn't get that to work | 08:48 |
| Ademan | ah, that sucks | 08:48 |
| gm|lap | i think i'll need atl2-source... would i also need madwifi-tools? | 08:48 |
| palmje | inasmu: resetting makes no difference | 08:48 |
| gm|lap | freebsd is quite good when you use the ule scheduler... although i had to put up with the earlier one for a short period of time... it was horrible | 08:49 |
| Ademan | gm|lap: http://madwifi-project.org/ is where i'd go, identify whether you want to use ath9k madwifi or ath5k based on the atheros card you have, and then follow the instructions they've got on there | 08:49 |
| gm|lap | 7.0-release | 08:49 |
| inasmu | palmje: can you pastebin the outputs of ifconfig and iwconfig? | 08:49 |
| gm|lap | cheers | 08:49 |
| Salajadin | si is saiki's issue fixed? | 08:49 |
| Saiki | ya, finally | 08:49 |
| Saiki | thanks guys | 08:50 |
| BladeNBrocade | i like the ports system especially, also like & love jails | 08:50 |
| Saiki | only took me 3 days and 4 hrs extra :@ | 08:50 |
| BladeNBrocade | jails is no comparison to solaris containers though =) | 08:50 |
| Saiki | thanks muchly guys | 08:50 |
| Ademan | gm|lap: good luck, I spent alot of time on it... there's a #madwifi here on freenode, it's pretty slow, but between them and #ubuntu you should be able to get going. | 08:50 |
| BladeNBrocade | =) | 08:50 |
| BladeNBrocade | Saiki: do u have wobbly windows now? =) | 08:50 |

| palmje | inasmu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/155770/ | 08:53 |
| ^Phantom2^ | is it safe for me to access (and possibly, if the need arises) files on my internal hard drive within ubuntu, since ubuntu does not know the windows xp install is on there? | 08:53 |
| BladeNBrocade | or xargs | 08:53 |
| gm|lap | (according to lspci) | 08:53 |
| mgolisch | how would i do that? | 08:53 |
| gm|lap | it's abg though | 08:53 |
| gm|lap | i don't think it's n | 08:53 |
| gm|lap | so would ath5k be what i want? | 08:53 |

| BladeNBrocade | monstah: for instance u can find . -name "something*tar.gz" -size +1024k -mtime +7 | awk '{print $11}' | 08:54 |
| BladeNBrocade | u can back tick that and do what u want with it | 08:54 |
| ^Phantom2^ | also, how do i create another server window in xchat, so that i can chat on multiple servers at once? | 08:55 |

| BladeNBrocade | yep | 08:56 |
| mgolisch | wow thats ugly | 08:56 |
| BladeNBrocade | it works for me =) | 08:56 |
| gordonjcp | ^Phantom2^: if your nick wasn't so annoying I'd find the answer | 08:57 |

| ^Phantom2^ | thankies :D | 08:58 |
| BladeNBrocade | but find is built for this type of thing.. being that its.. find | 08:58 |
| mgolisch | oh there is -newer | 08:58 |
| mgolisch | that might help | 08:58 |
| ^Phantom2^ | oops... | 08:58 |

| Mr_Kaizer | Greetings | 09:04 |
| un_dave | hey all, i need a quick way to copy all files from one folder to another. but the destination is FAT formatted, and i think there are few big files that might fail, which i just want to ignore. | 09:05 |
| un_dave | so like 'cp /source /mnt/dest' but with some sort of ignore errors option | 09:05 |
| Madpilot | un_dave, "man cp"- there might be a 'force' or 'quiet' arg you can append | 09:05 |
| un_dave | it does have a -f (force) option, but the description is confusing... is that actually what it means? | 09:07 |
| Mr_Kaizer | I need some help getting Ubuntu to boot, it seems to have a slight case of morning sickness. I installed Ubuntu (8.10) for the first time on Monday, it worked like a charm on my HP Pavillion dv9000. I went to bed content with casting off the shackles of Windows. But when I tried to turn on the comp the next morning, it wouldn't boot past the password screen. | 09:07 |
| * konubinix | 09:08 | |
| Mr_Kaizer | The screen would stay the start-up cream color, or the background would appear, but nothing else. | 09:08 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, what password screen? | 09:08 |
| gm|lap | i'm assuming the login screen. | 09:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Aye, login | 09:08 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, do you see the login at all? | 09:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Yeah, I can log inn just fine, but it won't work after that | 09:09 |
| ubuntistas | will the upgradee be displyed in update manager? | 09:09 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | ubuntistas, if there are updates they will be shown there | 09:09 |
| linny | ok i found the module SND_HDA_INTEL how to i stop it from loading | 09:09 |
| crushyy | is there anyway to undo what fsck has done to my drive? | 09:09 |
| raylu | Mr_Kaizer: sounds like you no longer own some files in your home directory | 09:09 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, Alright. So the boot process goes fine, it's just the login that goes wrong? | 09:09 |
| raylu | Mr_Kaizer: most likely because you ran some commands as root and it created them for you | 09:09 |
| gm|lap | crushyy: i have a feeling that there isn't. what did it do? | 09:10 |
| ubuntistas | i mean upgrades s3r3n1t7 | 09:10 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | ubuntistas, upgrades as in version upgrades? Depends on your settings. | 09:10 |
| gm|lap | consider that this isn't windows, as, well, there isn't any undelete mechanism in ext2 to start with | 09:10 |
| Mr_Kaizer | I can enter my username and password, the Ubuntu startup tune plays, but the desktop won't come up | 09:10 |
| crushyy | gm|lap: it made all my files and folder gone. and now all i have is a folder lost+found in my drive | 09:10 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, Hmm that's not that good. Do you have access to that system now? | 09:10 |
| gm|lap | ouch. | 09:11 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Unfortunately not, no | 09:11 |
| gm|lap | what's in that folder, anyway? | 09:11 |
| Mr_Kaizer | The weird thing is still to come though | 09:11 |
| crushyy | some million folders like #10087123 etc | 09:11 |
| gm|lap | either fsck is broken or your hard drive is SEVERELY broken | 09:11 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, what i'm thinking might be wrong is that some files aren't owned by your user. Did you run any commands as root? | 09:11 |
| crushyy | and some thousands files like #02348234 also | 09:11 |
| gm|lap | i take it you've booted onto a livecd? | 09:12 |
| crushyy | hard drive is fine. its just one partition of that. | 09:12 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | crushy, that's normal behavior for fsck if the drive was corrupted. | 09:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Yeah, it boots just fine on a Live CD | 09:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | And I don't think I've run any commands as root | 09:12 |
| crushyy | drive wasnt corrupted :( it did. now i cant even recover | 09:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | I reinstalled it yesterday | 09:12 |
| crushyy | is there anyway i can recover my projcets and files? | 09:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Rebooted several times with no problems | 09:12 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, Could you precede answer with my name please? s3r and then hit tab will do it. Can you tell me exactly what you did after the installation? | 09:13 |
| crushyy | gm|lap: no i am on windows for the moment | 09:13 |
| Mr_Kaizer | But this morning, it was broken again | 09:13 |
| manav | volume control is not working on my ubuntu machine | 09:13 |
| gm|lap | so how did you find that out? | 09:13 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | !sound | manav | 09:14 |
| ubottu | manav: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 09:14 |
| manav | yes sound ! | 09:14 |
| crushyy | i found it when i booted on livecd as well as ext2fs | 09:14 |
| manav | ALSA is installed with all maximum volume set | 09:14 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | manav, ALSA is installed by default. Please follow the first link given in the factoid. | 09:15 |
| antonius | alright, I'm coming back to ubuntu from sabayon to try jaunty...i thought it was ext4 compatible | 09:15 |
| antonius | it will not read my gentoo partition | 09:15 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | my windows are maximizing too big for my screen can someone help please?? | 09:15 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | antonius, it does support EXT4, but i'm not sure if it's out of the box. | 09:16 |
| crushyy | gm|lap: anyway i can recover my files back? those are .frm files of my visual basic project which i stored there | 09:16 |
| kdomn | Can somebody help me or direct me to help for a parallel port? | 09:16 |
| bluejeans | manav, the the switches / toggles to be sure everything is activated | 09:16 |
| Salajadin | it is out of thebox but | 09:16 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: 1st time: I activated the NVidia driver, tried to get the hddtemp thing to work, rebooted, installed compiz and messed around with that a little, installed Wine and Spotify. 2nd time: Activated the NVidia driver, ran update, rebooted, activated the newer NVidia driver, installed Compiz, installed Wine and Spotify, downloaded the restricted-contents packages. Rebooted twice to see if it would still boot, no problems. | 09:17 |
| Salajadin | it is not set default when partitioning | 09:17 |
| gm|lap | crushyy: it's VERY tricky to pull off, ESPECIALLY with a binary file like a .frm file | 09:17 |
| antonius | s3r3nlt7_ but i'm sure the new installer has an ext4 option..??hmm | 09:17 |
| gm|lap | the trick involves searching /dev/hda or /dev/sda or whatever the harddrive is | 09:17 |
| lirvan | hello | 09:17 |
| crushyy | gm|lap: .frm is not binary files, they suppose to be plain text (syntax infact) | 09:17 |
| antonius | <Salajadin> i just want to read/write to my ext4 partition | 09:18 |
| kdomn | Can somebody help me or direct me to help for a parallel port? | 09:19 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, right. How did you install nvidia drivers? And what is spotify | 09:19 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | antonius, i'm not sure. I've heard people say it does, but i can't say that for sure. | 09:19 |
| gm|lap | crushyy: what's your harddrive device called in linux? | 09:19 |
| antonius | dammit...so do i go around saying that jaunty can't read my ext4 partition lol j/k | 09:20 |
| gm|lap | actually... | 09:20 |
| gm|lap | stick a linux livecd in or something and boot off it | 09:20 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7 : Did what Ubuntu told me to do, used the built-in function to activate them. Spotify is a music program, allows you stream music for free. Sorta looks like iTunes. | 09:20 |
| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, so far so good. Installed compiz? Does that imply it didn't come installed for you? | 09:21 |
| pragad7 | how to know if the 3d box compiz is installed or even present in the system . | 09:21 |
| antonius | alright...so is everyone here confirming that jaunty is gonna be useless for me if all my data is on ext4? | 09:21 |
| gm|lap | then you do something like: grep -a -F -B 10 -A 10 "text to find" /dev/hda (or whatever your hard disk device is called) | 09:21 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: Affermitive, I had to use the add/remove function to get all the fancy desktop stuff. | 09:22 |
| gm|lap | -B is numbers of lines before | 09:22 |
| gm|lap | -A is " " after | 09:22 |

| s3r3n1t7_ | Mr_Kaizer, that's odd. Alright, what i'd recommend in this case would be to create a second user and see if that user also has troubles logging in. If the second user can login just fine, it's a problem with your own user, probably with file permissions. If that user also can't login, it's a problem with a program doing something wrong. Is there any way for you to get access to the system? | 09:24 |

| Mr_Kaizer | sudo get-me-coffee | 09:53 |
| pragad7 | how does this compiz work. why doesit have to be so difficult. this is outdoing microsoft | 09:53 |
| gm|lap | sudo make me a sandwich | 09:53 |
| joe__ | yes but why wouldn't you want to get the latest version? | 09:53 |
| wgrant | un_dave: No - Ubuntu 7.10 is not an LTS release, so you can only upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04 from 7.10 directly. | 09:53 |
| antonius602 | i just can't get ubuntu to read an ext4 partion...becuas | 09:53 |
| wgrant | joe__: Ubuntu 8.04 is an LTS release. | 09:53 |

| ubottu | un_dave: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 09:54 |
| gm|lap | joe__: oddly enough it isn't that difficult once it's properly set up. | 09:54 |
| wgrant | pragad7: Compiz is very configurable, but CCSM exposes all of the settings. Try simple-ccsm. | 09:54 |
| gm|lap | or just use the main ccsm screen and tick the boxes you want. | 09:54 |
| myforwik | Anyone know when 9.4 is going to be released?? | 09:54 |

| Kai_wp | Hey everyone! I just installed the latest release candidate of Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope. I installed my video card drivers and Compiz Fusion. But now when I try to run "Compiz --replace" for the first time I get an extremely long error, but the main part is " | 10:01 |
| Kai_wp | Checking for Xgl: not present. | 10:01 |
| pragad7 | i dont find simple ccsm in add/remove programs | 10:01 |
| Kai_wp | xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 10:01 |
| wgrant | Kai_wp: Neither of those look relevant. | 10:01 |
| traskbt | Kai_wp, I don't know your case, but when I upgraded it told me my video card didn't have drivers available in 9.04 (I use ATI Mobility Radeon) | 10:01 |
| traskbt | Kai_wp, though my Compiz still works fine. | 10:02 |
| Kai_wp | For me it won't run at all. I have a full pastebin of it here: http://pastebin.com/d62b45a16 | 10:02 |
| Kai_wp | It works fine in Hardy Heron. | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Kai_wp: what video card? | 10:03 |
| traskbt | Kai_wp, did you get the same "Your hardware's drivers are not available in 9.04" as I did? | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Kai_wp: lspci | grep -i vga | 10:03 |
| Kai_wp | I have an "XFX Nvidia 8600 GT XXX". | 10:03 |
| wgrant | pragad7: How ironic - it doesn't seem to be in the simple package manager. Find the 'simple-ccsm' package in System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager instead. | 10:03 |
| wgrant | Kai_wp: Oh dear... that's not good. | 10:03 |
| Kai_wp | traskbt: Nope I don't think so | 10:03 |
| wgrant | Kai_wp: But maybe it's because you gave -replace, rather than --replace. | 10:04 |

| Bob_ | world of warcraft =p | 10:04 |
| Bob_ | counter strike source aswell | 10:04 |
| traskbt | Bob_, right-o. Make sure you disable Compiz (the visual effects) or it will probably run badly. | 10:05 |

| ubottu | carmen: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 10:09 |

| antonius602 | it's fresh ubuntu install | 10:09 |
| antonius602 | lol | 10:09 |
| antonius602 | simple mount /dev | 10:09 |
| antonius602 | no options | 10:09 |
| wgrant | antonius602: Your fstab is wrong. | 10:09 |
| antonius602 | well the hard knocks of upgrading i guess | 10:10 |
| wgrant | antonius602: You must have something about that device in fstab if you can mount with just one argument. | 10:10 |

| traskbt | Bob_, "sudo apt-get install wine" for instance. | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Bob_: sudo <command for command line based commands. gksudo for gui based commands (like gedir) | 10:14 |
| kryptic | Bob: sudo su | 10:14 |

| ActionParsnip | kryptic: sudo su is not advised | 10:14 |
| kryptic | oh :/ | 10:15 |
| kryptic | it took my like 5 days to figure out gksudo so i could start gui apps from an openbox menu | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | kryptic: sudo -i (interactive) keeps the user as the user instead of transposing to being root, I think sudo su also needs the root account active which is not advised either | 10:15 |
| rascal999 | i'd like to run windows inside linux, (maybe vm), what is the easiest way to do this? | 10:16 |
| kryptic | it doesnt need the root account active, but yes, i agree its not safe | 10:16 |

| randhol | I can connect with my wireless in xfce4/gnome, but when I try to follow how to do it manually with iwconfig it won't work. I can use iwlist ra0 scan to see all the available nets. I do sudo iwconfig ra0 essid "net-name", sudo iwconfig ra0 key open, sudo dhclient ra0, but the dhclient just asks and asks for an IP. what have I forgotten to do or is there some NetworkManager black magic? | 10:29 |
| wgrant | raddy: Undefined. But I expect it within a few hours either side of 24 hours from now. | 10:29 |
| Jojujo | woops | 10:29 |
| qiaoqian | wgrant: thanks,I will have a try | 10:29 |
| zetheroo | wgrant: ok so at the login/user front its sorta a no-go with security | 10:29 |
| koshar1 | zetheroo there are 2 big holes missing in *ux compared to windows, running as administrator and IE | 10:29 |
| Jojujo | don't worry, haven't done it yet... | 10:29 |

| qiaoqian | wgrant: You mean ssl | 10:29 |
| Jojujo | still alive. | 10:29 |
| Jojujo | \o/ | 10:29 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: basically if someone can read your disk he can read all your data. That's why my linux is encrypted | 10:29 |

| wgrant | qiaoqian: Yes. | 10:29 |
| Jojujo | with iSCSI. | 10:29 |
| bartmon | koshar1: funny, i think those two things are actually advantages | 10:30 |
| wgrant | Naib: It's grabbing messages from the kernel and sending them to the logs. | 10:30 |
| randhol | kryptic: for an open net one should be able to run iwconfig ra0 essid name and the dhclient | 10:30 |
| zetheroo | phcoder1: how do you do that? | 10:30 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: if you want to protect from a hacker with physical access use luks. It's not enabled by default because it's a performance hit | 10:30 |
| kryptic | well its very specific' | 10:30 |
| Naib | wgrant: mmm ok | 10:30 |

| koshar1 | zetheroo dont use encypted disks unless you need to, | 10:32 |

| randhol | wgrant: I'm trying to access an open univeristy net now | 10:32 |
| bartmon | kryptic: I haven't used the terminal for protected networks in a while but shouldn't you run wpa_supplicant before requesting an IP with dhclient? | 10:32 |
| wgrant | zetheroo: Unless you want to get really complicated, yes. It has to move all of your data around a lot, which is hard. | 10:32 |
| wgrant | randhol: Hrmmm. | 10:32 |
| zetheroo | wgrant: I see | 10:32 |
| wgrant | randhol: Does iwconfig say 'unassociated', or '802.11something'? | 10:32 |
| randhol | ActionParsnip: yes, but I need a panel for the net applet | 10:32 |
| kryptic | bartmon: only if its a wpa encrypted i think | 10:32 |
| wgrant | randhol: Should be in the top left. | 10:32 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: the file is old but still applies | 10:33 |
| wgrant | bartmon, kryptic: wpa_supplicant isn't required for unencrypted or WEP networks. | 10:33 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: (the instruction link) | 10:33 |
| zetheroo | wgrant: so my filesystem atm is not encrypted ... | 10:33 |
| zetheroo | phcoder1: ok ... looking at it | 10:33 |
| bob_ | ok i am back and still nothing >.< | 10:33 |
| kryptic | i had to connect to my wireless by cli when i was on slackware | 10:33 |
| wgrant | zetheroo: No. It's a big performance hit, because the CPU has to do a *lot* of work, and everything has to go through the CPU. | 10:33 |
| randhol | wgrant: no | 10:33 |
| kryptic | so i memorized the commands | 10:34 |
| pragad7 | kryptic evertim i click to check the boxes in compiz seettings manager the window zooms or something instead of being checked | 10:34 |
| wgrant | randhol: What does it say? | 10:34 |
| bartmon | wgrant: I guess the name wpa_supplicant gives it away but IIRC you can configure WEP networks with it as well | 10:34 |
| bob_ | the reason i want in the external so bad is theres like 20gigs of movies Wow and all my games on it | 10:34 |
| wgrant | bartmon: Oh, you can. You just don't need to. | 10:34 |
| kryptic | pragad7: wtf? hmm... | 10:34 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: unless you suppose your hd can fall in wrong hands you don't need to encrypt. Encrypting will make your computer slower | 10:34 |
| kryptic | i dont know about that man | 10:34 |

| wgrant | randhol: What does it say just before the ESSID? | 10:36 |
| bartmon | wgrant: Didn't know that. I guess not using any weak WEP networks makes someone ignorant on how to configure them minimally. :) | 10:36 |
| randhol | ra0 RT2860 Wireless ESSSID | 10:36 |
| wgrant | randhol: Huh. It should normally give its association status there. | 10:36 |
| phcoder1 | zetheroo: if you want to protect against someone able to touch your computer but no knowledge how to open it, make your BIOS always boot from HD, put password on it and put password on grub | 10:36 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: That's no good. BIOS passwords are easily bypassed. | 10:36 |

| koshar1 | phcoder1 even then you can shuffle the hdds and boot of another in the same position unless you use uuid, | 10:39 |

| phcoder1 | koshar1: BIOS+boot passwords are against someone unable to open the case as I clearly said | 10:40 |
| cousin_luigi | ActionParsnip: thanks, I'll have a look | 10:40 |
| gangil1 | i am working on a OSS project , so i just needed to have a local repository | 10:40 |
| qiaoqian | wgrant: Then what's the command like? | 10:40 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: Or somebody knowing a BIOS password that works on all instances of that BIOS. Award BIOS has a very well known one that always works, for example. | 10:40 |
| phcoder1 | koshar1: And UUID are actually wrong on a secure system because it's easy to create a USB stick with given UUID and the system will boot from it | 10:41 |
| wgrant | qiaoqian: I actually use it with just a fetchmailrc. | 10:41 |
| koshar1 | phcoder1 you said no knowledge on how to open it, most people i know who can swap a sata cable can open a case | 10:41 |
| SlAiD | my numeric keypad isnt typing numbers. I think I need to edit a file and do something, but I dont know what exacly. | 10:42 |
| wgrant | gangil1: You might want to look at a more modern alternative than Subversion (such as Bazaar, Git or Mercurial), but you can use 'svnadmin' to create a local Subversion repository. | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: press numlock key? | 10:42 |

| koshar1 | SlAiD you can install numlockx to make numbers the default | 10:43 |

| koshar1 | phcoder1 agreed | 10:43 |
| phcoder1 | wgrant: old engineer passwords for award don't work anymore | 10:43 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: I was able to use a usual one on a machine just a couple of years old. | 10:44 |
| phcoder1 | wgrant: Ok. Well you can patch this thing out. On internet there is a manual how to change award engineer password. But BIOS is proprietary so I don't trust it. And you can use coreboot. | 10:45 |
| SlAiD | ActionParsnip xev? | 10:45 |
| ActionParsnip | phcoder1: plus you can wipe the cmospassword by pulling the plug from the system and removing the battery for 30 mins or so | 10:45 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: its a terminal command that reacts to system inputs | 10:45 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: Or just use the reset jumper, and be done in a couple of seconds. | 10:45 |
| happyhessian | i have an mplayer compilation question--if i get mplayer from svn and manually put windows codecs into the correct directory before compilation, can mplayer use them? | 10:45 |
| wgrant | happyhessian: I don't believe you have to have them there before compilation. It will load them at any time later. | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: not if the jumper is in a bad place, like it is on my asus AH1-p2 pundit | 10:46 |
| rumpel | @happy depends, if compilation checks available "plugins"... | 10:46 |
| jrib | happyhessian: doesn't really matter when you put the codecs where they need to be as long as you have them where they need to be | 10:46 |
| SlAiD | jrib didnt work | 10:46 |
| SlAiD | koshar1 how? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: either way, no system is totally secure for booting so a line must be drawn somewhere | 10:46 |
| SlAiD | ActionParsnip er... dont know what you're talking about. can you be a bit more specific? I'm just using ubuntu for two days | 10:46 |
| jrib | SlAiD: your numlock light is on? What exactly does the numpad do now? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: and tinfoil hats need detroying | 10:46 |
| phcoder1 | ActionParnship: I said it myself: bios+boot pwd is no good if attacker can open the case. On at least some boards cmos is actually a flash now so removing battery won't help | 10:46 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: Except for disk encryption, there's nothing you can do. | 10:46 |
| happyhessian | but the *.dll files will work fine? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: ok, run terminal in your preffered way | 10:47 |
| wgrant | happyhessian: Yes. | 10:47 |

| qiaoqian | Do anyone use command MAIL to send and receive email | 10:47 |
| jrib | qiaoqian: I'm sure some do, just ask your real question to the channel | 10:47 |
| happyhessian | specifically, i'm trying to get vp7 to work--i have w64codecs from medibuntu but mplayer says that vp7 needs to be enabled at compile time | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: now, when you press buttons you will see the system react, try typing your name | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: once you have a feel for it, try other keys you suspect dont work | 10:48 |
| happyhessian | i don't know if vp7 is in w64codecs, mplayer says they support it via som vp7vfa.dll codec or something like that | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | oh, god it | 10:48 |
| phcoder1 | wgrant: even the encryption is no good if you can't ensure the integrity of booter and kernel. | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | all numbers dont work | 10:48 |
| jrib | happyhessian: why not check? | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | I mean all :p | 10:48 |
| qiaoqian | jrib: I have hacked for a long time, but I still didn't know how to ? | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | just un the numpad at the right side of course | 10:48 |
| rumpel | @ph or random-number-generator like in windows... | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | the other ones work | 10:48 |
| Kai_wp | ActionParsnip: Alright I'm trying adding those lines to my xorg.conf file now. Should I do a full reboot after or? | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: ok then your keyboard setting needs modifying to get the keys working | 10:48 |
| SlAiD | :s | 10:49 |
| SlAiD | how can I do that? | 10:49 |
| rumpel | @kai restarting x-server should be sufficient | 10:49 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: Right, but even if you can then you can't ensure integrity of the BIOS. Encryption is only good to stop people from getting at your data immediately. | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Kai_wp: no, simply save the file, close the editor then hit ctrl+alt+backspace once it is safe to log you out | 10:49 |
| SlAiD | I read the xorg.conf yestereday and opened it, but I didnt get any idea on how to edit | 10:49 |

| wgrant | ActionParsnip: It will be released in 24 hours. Just a warning. | 10:51 |
| DASPRiD | Rumpa_, no idea, but you can enable it | 10:51 |
| Kai_wp | ActionParsnip: Ya, the latest release candidate. | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: thats a whole day so I'm fine but i get your point, if you get mine? | 10:52 |
| wgrant | rumpel: Because people hit it by accident, which is really destructive, and there are very few usecases for it. | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Kai_wp: then reboot | 10:52 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: I do. | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: cool | 10:52 |
| rumpel | @wgrant k... | 10:52 |
| phcoder1 | wgrant: power analysis? this is good. Basically unless you trust your hardware you can't have security | 10:52 |
| Kai_wp | ActionParsnip: Ok | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Kai_wp: you can re-enable ctrl+alt+ackspace | 10:52 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: And you cannot trust your hardware once an intruder has been at it. So we're stuffed! | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | i dont get why its disabled | 10:52 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: Why would it be enabled? It's very dangerous, and not useful. | 10:52 |
| rumpel | yeah.. i sometimes accidently pressed this combi... :/ | 10:53 |
| Kai_wp | I've used it alot on my 8.04 and 8.10 intalls. | 10:53 |
| Kai_wp | * installs | 10:53 |
| SlAiD | I change the laguage to pt but I still can't get it working ActionParsnip. maybe I need a reboot? | 10:53 |
| stevem | These days... can Ubuntu play things like mp3 and xvid out of the box? | 10:53 |
| * SlAiD windows user talking | 10:53 | |
| SlAiD | :-P | 10:53 |
| wgrant | rumpel: So do I, particularly when switching between desktops in compiz, and hitting backspace in a terminal. Sometimes I'll just type both too quickly, and my screen goes black... | 10:53 |
| phcoder1 | wgrant: Yes. Unless you compute RSA+AES+Whirlpool in your head... | 10:53 |
| rumpel | @stevem dont think so... | 10:54 |
| rumpel | @stevem try vlc... | 10:54 |
| wgrant | stevem: No - but they are easily installable. There are patents that prevent us from legally installing that support by default. When you first try to play either of them, it will give you the option to install codecs. | 10:54 |
| wgrant | phcoder1: In which case you don't need a computer :) | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: well its been around for such a long time and its been fine | 10:54 |
| Kai_wp | Will this Compiz Fusion error still happen in the final release? | 10:54 |
| stevem | wgrant, yes I understand the patent issue... but I've just installed 8.10 (fresh install) to find mp3 and xvid playback working | 10:54 |
| stevem | wgrant, and it didn't install them automatically | 10:55 |
| ubunewbie | greetings all, i need help changing permission on external hdd. | 10:55 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: i'd research into the quirks your keyboard has with linux, maybe it needs extra options | 10:55 |
| rumpel | @stevem depends on the codecs used | 10:55 |
| bartmon | SlAiD: Reboot's are very rarely needed. Just try logging out and in again. | 10:55 |
| stevem | rumpel, mp3 and xvid | 10:55 |
| SlAiD | I try three diferent ones | 10:55 |
| SlAiD | -.- | 10:55 |
| wgrant | stevem: They did not both work without you installing extra applications, I can assure you. | 10:55 |
| rumpel | @stevem mp3 and xvid are just containers for different codecs | 10:55 |
| ActionParsnip | SlAiD: well then they arent the right ones | 10:55 |
| Kai_wp | ActionParsnip: I'll have to try the changes I made to the xorg.conf file out tommorow. XD Thanks for the help! :D | 10:55 |
| SlAiD | LOL | 10:56 |
| Kai_wp | I've gotta go, bye! :D | 10:56 |

| SlAiD | ok, let me logout and logon again. | 10:56 |
| SlAiD | hold | 10:56 |
| wgrant | rumpel: No, they are not container formats. | 10:56 |
| stevem | rumpel, no they're audio and video codecs... ogg and avi are examples of containers | 10:56 |
| rumpel | @wgrant wild guess, i confess ^^ | 10:56 |
| stevem | wgrant, and the same would be true for debian? | 10:56 |
| wgrant | stevem: Except it's much harder to install them on there, yes. | 10:56 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: its a bit of a daft thing to accidently press, ctrl+shift I'd understand (slip of a finger) but that seems a bit ridiculous to me | 10:56 |

| Smegzor | ok I give up. How do I sort menu entries in Gnome? I know I can move items up or down, but I have hundreds of unsorted menu entries. How do I sort entire menu trees? | 10:57 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: Switching desktops gets you two thirds of the way there, often. | 10:57 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: It's like Windows 9x's Ctrl+Alt+Delete, except one press rather than two. It's a really bad idea. | 10:57 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: Believe be, this has been argued to death in several fora. | 10:57 |
| pragad7 | my windows are maximizing bigger than my screen can anyone help please | 10:57 |
| rumpel | @smegzor which menues? | 10:58 |
| rumpel | @pragad7 is your screen very small? | 10:58 |

| ActionParsnip | wgrant: gotcha | 10:58 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: You around? | 10:59 |
| Smegzor | really its just the Games menu. The rest look ok, but Games is not well sorted. | 10:59 |
| rumpel | @pragad well... you can move windows with pressing ALT and double-click... | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: thing is, its needed if a game takes yuor display outside the visible range and you dont have an extra system to initiate a reboot. | 10:59 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Mr_Kaizer, I am, although not for long. Lunch is served in 10 minutes. | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: but i see your point | 10:59 |

| wgrant | ActionParsnip: There is another good combination to do that, using magic-sysrq. | 10:59 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: How do I make a new user? | 11:00 |
| pragad7 | rumpel: it is happening in this way only in compiz settings manager any idea | 11:00 |
| rumpel | @pragad dont use compiz... sorry | 11:00 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: System->Administration->Users and Groups | 11:00 |
| === root is now known as Guest70887 | ||
| s3r3n1t7 | Mr_Kaizer, before you login, you press ctrl + alt + f2. This will give you a terminal screen. This is where you should be able to login without troubles. While there, type this without the arrows ==> sudo adduser theusername <== to add the new user. | 11:01 |
| pragad7 | @rumpel so is everyone having problem with compiz | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | wgrant: so they disabled ctrl+alt=backspace (3 keys) but allow magic+sysrq (2 keys) | 11:01 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: Thanks, will try | 11:01 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Mr_Kaizer, good luck!` | 11:01 |
| rumpel | @pragad no... i just dont like too much eyecandy | 11:01 |

| ActionParsnip | kt: ok | 11:03 |
| kt | and I need www.example.com to resolve to one IP | 11:03 |

| pragad7 | @smegzor so have you ever experienced this . when tryin to check the boxes in compiz settings manager tthe window is either zooming or a new window is appearing in the place that has a back button. | 11:04 |
| cousin_luigi | kt: what does "dig +short www.example.com" return? | 11:04 |
| Nhawdge | wgrant: so it will change based on where I connect from's terminal? | 11:04 |
| wgrant | Nhawdge: Yes. | 11:04 |
| Nhawdge | wgrant: Thanks! | 11:04 |
| wgrant | Nhawdge: No problem. | 11:05 |
| kt | ActionParsnip: 2 IPs mapped to a single domain; infinitely many subdomains on IP[0], only primary service (i.e. domain.com/www.domain.com) on IP[1] | 11:05 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7: The new user fails as well, same result. | 11:06 |
| Smegzor | pragad7: My problem was that ccsm would not launch and running it from console revealed a python traceback error. I followed a guide that had me delete a few python files and reinstall python. That fixed it. | 11:06 |

| ubunewbie | hi everyone, can anyone help me unlock the permissions for my external hdd? | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | kt: you will need to either define the dns server as different for one half of your systems and add a different ip resolution on a different dns for the others | 11:08 |
| Smegzor | pragad7: is that happening to you while you have compiz enabled? I'd guess its a configuration problem in ccsm. Maybe completely removing ccsm and reinstalling/re-setting up would cure it? | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | kt: if you use say 10 systems i would edit /etc/hosts and add the resolution manually there | 11:09 |
| Smegzor | pragad7: It might behave itself while compiz is not enabled. | 11:09 |
| kt | ActionParsnip: I create DNS records on-the-fly for one of the IPs | 11:10 |

| frozendecay | hey all, i've got a little question.. yesterday when i was on school i installed a windowmanager on ubuntu, and it was like pretty nice and fast... but now i want to install it here at home, and i forgot the name of it. so i did a little research on google but i can't seem to find it. the logo was white and it looked a little bit like the iceWM logo but it was smaller (i already tried iceWM and it wasn't that windowmanager). Oh and it looked a bit li | 11:19 |
| frozendecay | ke the windows GUI | 11:19 |
| wgrant | r3c0n: And similar support for security vulnerabilities :( | 11:19 |
| r3c0n | ActionParsnip: THIS IS SPARTAAAA! | 11:19 |
| frozendecay | does somebody know what WM it was? | 11:20 |
| wgrant | frozendecay: fvwm. maybe? I've seen that look somewhat like Windows. | 11:20 |
| Nhawdge | wgrant: Perfect but env isn't terribly helpful for $variables | 11:20 |
| jrib | frozendecay: openbox? | 11:20 |
| wgrant | Nhawdge: Ah, if they're not exported, true... | 11:20 |
| frozendecay | nope tried both of the WM's.. it had 4 letters thats all i know (the name looked so far i know a little bit like FVWM.. but it wasn't that) | 11:22 |
| Nhawdge | wgrant: gotcha, I just don't wanna accidently overwrite stuff like $HOME | 11:22 |
| kt | ActionParsnip: ah, it is resolving properly just an apache virtualhost config issue | 11:22 |
| kt | ActionParsnip: ty =) | 11:22 |
| VanRoy | yo | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | np :D | 11:22 |
| traskbt | frozendecay, FVWM has a FVWM '95 thing, which is a knock-off of Windows 95/98 look. | 11:23 |
| traskbt | LXDE is probably what you're looking for. | 11:23 |
| traskbt | I'm almost sure of it. | 11:23 |

| pragad | i just pressed windows key and 3 and all the clours on the screen have scrambled and tried rebboting still problem continues | 11:28 |
| r3c0n | the :xxxx represents a different non-dotted number | 11:28 |
| r3c0n | sounds familiar, mackk431? | 11:28 |
| mackk431 | ok thats obvious r3c0n but why is it logged | 11:29 |
| wgrant | pragad: Does it still happen before Ubuntu starts? At the boot menu? In the BIOS? | 11:29 |
| r3c0n | well figure out what application is generated it | 11:29 |
| r3c0n | generating it | 11:29 |
| wgrant | mackk431: Because the packet seems to be malformed. It's good to log that sort of thing, just in case. | 11:29 |
| r3c0n | and control its logging mechanisms | 11:29 |
| r3c0n | dur | 11:29 |
| mackk431 | ah ok | 11:29 |
| pragad | no when ubuntu starts it is ok for few secs and then it all goe sblack and scrambled with different coors | 11:29 |
| mackk431 | so it logs internet traffic with mangled packets? | 11:30 |

| mriera_ | hello | 11:51 |
| Hetor | ok, thank you | 11:51 |
| harrach | hi mriera | 11:51 |
| mriera_ | i have a small problem | 11:51 |
| Mr_Kaizer | s3r3n1t7 (When you get back): My drive isn't full, just formated it, Ubuntu is the only thing on it. | 11:51 |
| mriera_ | with this 8.10 last update some of my users have chosen to override the file | 11:52 |
| BaRbieDoll | any one here | 11:52 |
| mriera_ | there is any way to revert this? | 11:52 |
| coz_ | BaRbieDoll, I think many are here guy :) | 11:52 |
| coz_ | gal | 11:52 |
| BaRbieDoll | so slow in here wow | 11:52 |
| harrach | mriera_ which file do they want to override? | 11:53 |
| coz_ | BaRbieDoll, mm I just got there so I cant compare yet :) | 11:53 |
| bassliner | wgrant: is that problem still existing with 9.04? | 11:53 |
| bassliner | wgrant: or will it just be smooth sail and it works out-of-the-box? | 11:54 |
| bassliner | wgrant: she obviously just got an 8.04 LTS there | 11:54 |
| Mohero | is there a way I can change the MOTD and still have the cron job update the packages that can be installed? | 11:54 |
| bassliner | wgrant: i'm probably just going to install her a 9.04 tomorrow | 11:54 |
| mriera_ | today or yesterday ubuntu had an update on 8.10 , and it asked about if he should override a file or not. If I choosed yes , how I can come back to my old file? (it's about pam , and now I can not authenticate) | 11:54 |
| bassliner | Mohero: that question really doesn't make sense to me. | 11:55 |
| Mohero | bassliner: the MOTD is updated by a cron job, so when I modify the MOTD, cron over-writes it again | 11:55 |
| harrach | mriera_: if the file is overwritten, you cannot get back the old one. | 11:55 |
| bassliner | mackk431: then you would have to alter the script that the cron job executes, remove the cron job or something like that. | 11:56 |
| bassliner | err | 11:56 |
| bassliner | Mohero: | 11:56 |
| mriera_ | harrach_ ok, then may be if I know the name I can take it from other sistems, can somebody tell me wich is the last update related to pam? | 11:56 |
| wgrant | bassliner: It's no longer needed in 9.04, nor 8.10 in most cases. | 11:56 |
| bassliner | wgrant: well i had to install that extrasound package on my netbook running 8.10, hence the question :) | 11:57 |
| wgrant | bassliner: Right, but it's certainly not needed in Jaunty. | 11:57 |
| bassliner | wgrant: thanks! | 11:57 |

| luiX_ | wgrant, thanks | 12:02 |
| pragad7 | anyone | 12:03 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, it depends on how it's "broken" | 12:03 |
| pragad7 | it is all black | 12:03 |
| pragad7 | everyhitn is black | 12:03 |
| pragad7 | it just happened some time ago | 12:03 |
| pragad7 | in windows usually you put the cd back in do that scan disk something . is there nothinf i can do i n ubuntu | 12:04 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, does the system boot normally, but then you get a black screen when it gets into the graphical login ? | 12:05 |
| pragad7 | i can login alright | 12:05 |
| joaopinto | do you get the user selection screen ? | 12:05 |
| Mr_Kaizer | pragad7, I'm having almost the same error | 12:05 |
| pragad7 | then icons appear for i sec | 12:06 |
| pragad7 | then everthing goes black step by step | 12:06 |
| Mr_Kaizer | pragad7, I can log inn, but the desktop won't appear, the screen flickers, sometimes it goes black with red stripes all over | 12:06 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, most likely it's something set on your X session startup | 12:06 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, in your case I would create a new user, and see if you can login with it properly | 12:07 |
| pragad7 | x session??? | 12:07 |
| syphys | No body know how to join French room please? | 12:07 |
| pragad7 | @mr-kaizer yes stripes also | 12:07 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, when you login, several applications are loaded according to the user settings/config | 12:07 |
| pragad7 | i knowsyphys | 12:07 |
| Mr_Kaizer | syphys: #ubuntu-fr | 12:07 |
| pragad7 | yes syphys | 12:07 |
| syphys | Mr_Kaizer & pragad : thanks :) | 12:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Then, joaopinto, setting up a new user doesn't work | 12:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | I have the same error | 12:08 |
| pragad7 | joapinto what do i do | 12:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Just tested it | 12:08 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, switch to a text console with: ctrl -alt-f1 | 12:08 |
| raddy | Hello Everybody | 12:08 |
| Mr_Kaizer | f2* | 12:08 |
| pragad7 | s/config?? | 12:08 |
| joaopinto | praet, then login, and create a user with: sudo adduser test | 12:08 |
| stevem | does anyone have file... gstreamer0.10-fluendo-complete-bundle_7_amd64.deb | 12:08 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, | 12:09 |
| raddy | At what timezone 9.04 will be realed?????? | 12:09 |
| wgrant | stevem: Doesn't one have to pay for that? | 12:09 |
| wgrant | raddy: Some time during the 23rd, in any timezone. | 12:09 |
| joaopinto | then just get back to the graphical login, with CTRL - ALT -F6 (or F7 I am not sure right now), and log in with that user | 12:09 |
| pragad7 | joaopinto dont have much time after logging in it goes black in 2 secs | 12:09 |
| stevem | wgrant, dunno :D | 12:09 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, do not login | 12:09 |
| joaopinto | just hit CTRL-ALT-F1 on the login screen | 12:09 |
| joaopinto | or boot into recovery mode | 12:10 |
| joaopinto | and create the user with: sudo adduser test | 12:10 |
| raddy | Ohh okk | 12:10 |
| pragad7 | in recovery mode i selected repair and it said it will download something | 12:10 |
| pragad7 | something like 200mb of files | 12:11 |
| joaopinto | pragad7, repair will not fix a user config related problem, which seems to be your case | 12:11 |
| zxd | what is /etc/fonts/language-selector.conf | 12:11 |
| Mr_Kaizer | How do I boot to recovery mode? | 12:11 |
| wgrant | joaopinto: It sounds more like a compiz problem. | 12:11 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: Select it at the boot menu. | 12:11 |
| pragad7 | during boot | 12:11 |
| joaopinto | wgrant, a new user will have compiz disabled ;) | 12:11 |
| pragad7 | the second option | 12:11 |
| Mr_Kaizer | Found by pushing...what button? | 12:11 |
| wgrant | joaopinto: No, it's enabled by default. | 12:12 |
| pragad7 | no it is a compiz problem | 12:12 |
| joaopinto | ouch :\ | 12:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | wgrant: I have the same problem as pragad7 | 12:12 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: When you reboot, it should display it. If not, it'll tell you to hit Esc to show the menu, with a three-second countdown. | 12:12 |
| Mr_Kaizer | kk | 12:12 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: Can you get to a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F1? | 12:12 |
| pragad7 | becas thats what i was trying to do when this went wrong | 12:12 |
| wgrant | pragad7: Had you enabled some plugin? | 12:13 |

| pragad7 | may be i was alredy having problem with compiz settings manager i was unable to check the boxes for some reason | 12:13 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: OK, try 'sudo apt-get remove compiz' | 12:13 |
| joaopinto | hum, should | 12:13 |
| joaopinto | shouldn't "gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-session/rh/window_manager "metacity"" be sufficient :P ? | 12:14 |
| wgrant | joaopinto: True, but I know that removing compiz *has* to work, and it's more easily restorable. | 12:14 |
| joaopinto | ok :) | 12:15 |
| wgrant | pragad7: You should try joaopinto's suggestion, though. | 12:15 |

| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: What type of graphics card? Any recent updates? | 12:20 |
| Mr_Kaizer | wgrant: NVidia something-something, 7600 GO I think, used the built in Ubuntu function to get the drive for it. | 12:21 |
| wgrant | Mr_Kaizer: Ah... the proprietary NVIDIA driver. I probably can't help you with that. | 12:21 |
| FEJIJFEFE | Bonjour à tous ! | 12:22 |
| Mr_Kaizer | wgrant: Dang...I just don't get why it worked perfectly last night, but not now? I even rebooted it two-three times before I went to bed to check if it booted properly. Then when I turned it on this morning, no desktop. | 12:23 |
| Mr_Kaizer | wgrant: The reboot after installing the driver was normal. | 12:24 |
| Mr_Kaizer | I'd think the problem would have started then, if it was a problem with the driver? | 12:24 |

| === sleepy_cat is now known as C_NICK | ||

| Gilpy | can anybody help me with installing packet injection capable drivers? | 13:21 |
| grawity | Gilpy: In Linux? I thought Linux is capable of doing that without any drivers. | 13:22 |
| joaopinto | Gilpy, doesn't the regular kernel drivers allow that by default ? | 13:22 |
| joaopinto | grawity, you mean without aditional drivers, you always need the kernel drivers :P | 13:23 |
| Salajadin | okay thanks im pplanning for an ubuntu install fest in the not so distant future and ithink it would be best to do it with pxe | 13:23 |
| ZhouYu | tomorrow 9.04 will be available :) | 13:23 |
| grawity | joaopinto: well, yeah. | 13:23 |
| iceroot | is it called driver in linux or kernel-modul? like the nvidia-"driver" | 13:23 |
| Ahlee_ | Salajadin: Yes, there are numerous how-to's for how to get a tftp daemon, DHCP server, and to get a netinstall environment up and running | 13:23 |
| joaopinto | iceroot, both are acceptable, it is more common to call it kernel modules | 13:24 |
| iceroot | joaopinto: ok | 13:24 |
| steveccc | does anyone know what time jaunty will be appearing on mirrors tomorrow - i would like to setup a download in the early hours of the morning to get it but until i have a link i cant? | 13:24 |
| hbekel | iceroot: drivers are kernel modules, not all modules are hardware drivers | 13:24 |
| Salajadin | okayyy imma check those out | 13:25 |
| mgolisch | and not all drivers are kernelmodules | 13:25 |
| mgolisch | :) | 13:25 |
| joaopinto | steveccc, if you are really in a rush just get the RC and perform the upgrades, it is very unlikely that you will get any major fix on the installer | 13:25 |
| Salajadin | ask my best friend big G | 13:25 |
| sourcemaker | how can i start ubuntu from a running linux system | 13:26 |
| sourcemaker | I have no cdrom | 13:26 |
| Halitech | sourcemaker, do you have a netconnection? | 13:26 |
| sourcemaker | no | 13:26 |
| steveccc | joaopinto: i am not really in a rush and would drather wait for the full release now its only a day away but i just wanted to avoid using lots of bandwidth then i am working so wondered if links had been given which would only be live from a set time? | 13:26 |
| bassliner | steveccc: you could just write a little bash script that will check a mirror for changes | 13:26 |
| sourcemaker | only a usb drive... but the usb drive does not start the install from bios boot | 13:26 |
| Halitech | sourcemaker, is the machine capible of booting from usb? | 13:26 |

| joaopinto | steveccc, nope, and be prepared for download performance issues on the release day | 13:28 |

| jedi06 | Salajadin, /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 | 13:31 |
| jedi06 | I think so yes | 13:31 |
| Halitech | sourcemaker, look at the bottom of the page that iceroot gave you, it is very simple to do | 13:32 |
| dhalsimm | shortcut's command is /home/dhalsim/Programs/eclipse/ec (ec is sh script) | 13:32 |
| Salajadin | well it is mounted | 13:32 |
| jedi06 | Salajadin, i cd to /media/cdrom0 nothing there | 13:32 |

| Lxndr | Halitech: http://paste.ubuntu.com/155904/ | 13:49 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, ok, let me look | 13:50 |
| Lxndr | Thank you very much, Halitech | 13:50 |
| Counterspell | When I run wget with the -r option, it recurses *upwards* and retrieves files until everyone under the base URL has been retrieved. How do I prevent this? I only want to recurse "downwards." | 13:50 |
| Counterspell | btw my tree is upside down so the root is "up" and the branches are "down" lol | 13:51 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, you have an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG and it's showing as disabled, have you checked to see if there is a switch to turn it on and off? | 13:51 |
| grawity | Counterspell: Actually, in filesystems the root is always "up" | 13:51 |
| wlinjie | #ubuntu | 13:52 |
| pragad7 | that didnt work | 13:52 |
| wgrant | grawity: Almost universally in CS, in fact. A little odd. | 13:52 |
| Lxndr | Halitech: I've been searching all over my laptop's exterior for a switch, and so far the only switch I've found is to let the battery out. I'll keep looking. | 13:52 |
| wlinjie | ＃ubuntu-cn | 13:52 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, what type of laptop is it? | 13:52 |
| Lxndr | a dell xps 1530 | 13:52 |
| Counterspell | grawity: it depends on how you think about it but yet... that's what i mean the root is the top of the tree | 13:52 |
| seat09 | hello | 13:52 |
| seat09 | !list | 13:52 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 13:52 |
| Counterspell | anyway how do i get wget to do what i want?! | 13:53 |
| Lxndr | Halitech: I believe I found the switch. Trying it now. | 13:54 |
| Lxndr | Halitech and Knirgh, thank you | 13:54 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, cool, hopefully it works | 13:54 |
| === mib_259u50 is now known as aptgetm0o | ||
| Lxndr | Halitech: Looks like it is working. Thank you! | 13:55 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, cool, glad to hear you got it working | 13:55 |
| Lxndr | sorry for blaming ubuntu when it wasn't an ubuntu problem | 13:55 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, just so I can file the info away, where is the switch for the wireless? | 13:55 |
| Lxndr | Halitech: On the side of the laptop, right side, near the front corner. | 13:56 |
| Halitech | Lxndr, ok, thanks | 13:56 |
| pragad7 | it worked second attempt thanks joaopinto and wgrant | 13:56 |
| sambagirl | i have a passport drive that is mounted however it is labeled My Passport (it is formatted for my macbook). | 13:57 |
| sambagirl | if it is labeled My Passport how can i cd to it? | 13:58 |
| sambagirl | it has a space | 13:58 |
| Halitech | sambagirl, you can either use "" around it or list it as My\ Passport | 13:58 |
| frostburn | sambagirl, use a backslash space e.g. \ | 13:58 |
| hbekel | sambagirl: cd My\ Passport | 13:58 |
| sambagirl | cd My\ Passport | 13:58 |
| sambagirl | opps | 13:58 |
| hbekel | sambagirl: or simply type cd My<tab> | 13:59 |
| frostburn | Counterspell, man wget? | 13:59 |
| grawity | sambagirl: cd "My Passport" is sometimes easier than using \s | 13:59 |
| sambagirl | wow | 13:59 |
| sambagirl | what a neat commnand with the tab key | 13:59 |

| rhsanborn | Silly SSH question. If my ssh connection drops, does it close my running applications? Or does it orphan an SSH user session somewhere? | 14:06 |
| hbekel | KingKimi: run it with gksudo | 14:07 |

| frostburn | rhsanborn, it's gone, you'll want to investigate using either screen, disown, or nohup | 14:08 |
| joaopinto | rhsanborn, you can use nohup, if you want to keep running on the background, or screen, if you want to restore the session later | 14:08 |
| hbekel | KingKimi: in terminal, gksudo clamav (or whatever the binary is called) | 14:08 |

| Dima | ok, looks great can't wait :) .... And I hope that RT2870 will be supported :( | 14:18 |

| bidossessi | C_Kode, if you're still running gnome2.24, the volume control is a panel icon you can add back if it disappeared | 14:20 |

| C_Kode | Nope, it vanished. I can run gnome-volume-control from the cmdline though | 14:24 |

| JPZ` | Hello everyone. I've been struggling with an application that uses java. It has my CPU at 100% most of the time. I've read countless forum posts regarding this topic. Does anyone know of a java stress test that could confirm whether or not my java instalation is defective? | 14:36 |
| bidossessi | UbuntuBoy, did you try the solution someone gave you about running xfix? | 14:36 |
| gordonjcp | JPZ`: that sounds pretty normal for Java | 14:36 |
| topriddy | Okay no problem. After installing my Ubuntu I found out I cannot compile or run c and c++ programs by default | 14:36 |
| UbuntuBoy | Yes I Try Many Solution | 14:37 |
| gordonjcp | topriddy: you need to do "apt-get install build-essential" | 14:37 |
| UbuntuBoy | Do you have a Xorg.conf File For Nvidia Fx5200 | 14:37 |
| gordonjcp | topriddy: and, minor nit to pick, but you're not running C programs anyway, you're running binaries compiled from C programs ;-) | 14:37 |
| topriddy | gordonjcp: Okay am going to do that right now. | 14:37 |
| JPZ` | gordonjcp, I dont understand why it uses so much CPU. I'm also using Untangle ( a web filter that works with java) and it never reaches past 50% even with lots of traffic. Similar CPU installed on both servers. | 14:37 |
| topriddy | What? | 14:37 |
| gordonjcp | topriddy: I *suppose* you could write a C interpreter, and run C programs directly if you were so minded | 14:37 |
| pumpkin_ | JPZ`, do you run openjava or the sun edition? | 14:38 |
| hector | what if he is trying to compile from source? | 14:38 |
| JPZ` | pumpkin_, sun-java-6 | 14:38 |

| topriddy | gordonjcp: What you mean by that statement | 14:38 |
| UbuntuBoy | Look | 14:38 |
| gordonjcp | topriddy: C is compiled, not interpreted | 14:38 |
| topriddy | Silly comment I'll just ignore. | 14:38 |

| scunizi | waan: please... they haven't announced what time only what date.. you're closer than most. If you have RC then just update it and you're there. | 14:41 |

| bidossessi | qiaoqian, there's google for that. this is not #linuxforbeginners, stick to ubuntu specific queries | 14:41 |

| JPZ` | pumpkin_, all I did was install java, perhaps install other java packages by mistake, but that is all. | 14:41 |

| pumpkin_ | JPZ`, is this a java applet or the standalone java program ? | 14:42 |
| topriddy | Okay, read somewhere in the ubuntu doc there's an IDE for c and C++ GTK | 14:42 |
| joaopinto | qiaoqian, on the terminal type "man mail", it has a nice description how to use it to send mails | 14:42 |
| Spabby | is it worth me spamming my question, or do I have to be really lucky :D | 14:43 |
| JPZ` | pumpkin_, its a java application (http://www.objectplanet.com/probe/) | 14:43 |
| qiaoqian | bidossessi: Can you tell me the .org of the mail, Please ,the last request | 14:43 |
| scunizi | qiaoqian: if you want a cli mail program look at mutt.. lots of info on that out there. | 14:43 |
| JPZ` | java standalone* | 14:43 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, more $(which startx) | 14:43 |
| qiaoqian | scunizi: Thanks,it bothers me a lot | 14:44 |
| grawity | Spabby: It's okay as long as you don't do it every minute :) I think every 15-20 minutes would be acceptable.... not sure. | 14:44 |
| pumpkin_ | JPZ`, that thing is evil, it probes the network via JNI. Yes, that can cause 100% load. | 14:44 |
| Spabby | joaopinto thank you, what does that actually do? | 14:45 |
| UbuntuBoy | how I Can Sauvgarde My ubuntu Update | 14:45 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: Code::Blocks is pretty good IDE for C and C++ | 14:45 |
| qiaoqian | I know What I asked is very basic ,and I don't think I am a newbie, I can hack the kernel but I do not know how to use mail. Funny,isn't it? | 14:45 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, it will dump the contents of the startx script, which lists the files that are used to start the X related applications | 14:45 |

| JPZ` | pumpkin_, haha, nice definition. I tried to keep in mind that it itself would use alot of recources depending on traffic, but since we also use Untangle ( web filter that runs on java) and barely uses 50% cpu, I was skeptic. Ubuntu stops responding after a few days if I leave that app running non stop. | 14:46 |
| topriddy | darkvertex: so how do I get thta. | 14:46 |
| joaopinto | inma_, I believe there is a matlab version which runs on Ubuntu... | 14:46 |
| === flo__ is now known as pepper | ||
| frostburn | inma_, maple? | 14:46 |
| Spabby | I am trying to stop gde from running when I startx, but I cannot actually find where it is being called, does anyone have any suggestions pleeeease? | 14:46 |
| qiaoqian | joaopinto: I can do that,but How can I receive one? | 14:47 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, what is gde ? | 14:47 |
| Spabby | gnomde desktop | 14:47 |
| Spabby | gnome | 14:47 |
| Spabby | even | 14:47 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: sudo apt-get install codeblocks? | 14:47 |
| inma_ | but I guess it's not free... I mean the matlab version. Is maple free? | 14:47 |
| joaopinto | qiaoqian, erm, please be clear on your question, do you want to send email, or to receive email, is your question about setting up a local mail server ? | 14:47 |
| pumpkin_ | JPZ`, you can try to increase the jvm-ram: java -Xms1000M -Xmx1000M .... But i don't think it will work form more then one week. | 14:47 |
| space_cadet | transferring a 4.3GB file to an external drive and now my nautilus is stuck | 14:47 |
| space_cadet | it stopped at 59 seconds left | 14:48 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, so what desktop environemnt do you want to start ? | 14:48 |
| qiaoqian | joaopinto: I have to think about it ,Thanks first | 14:48 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: or else you could go straight to www.codeblocks.org | 14:48 |
| qiaoqian | @:@ | 14:48 |
| Spabby | i just want to use xorg to display a browser | 14:48 |
| Spabby | I am not looking to use a desktop, I just want to open a xwindow session and then start a browser | 14:48 |
| bidossessi | qiaoqian, i use mutt a lot when i want to access mail through ssh. supports imap. you really should look into it, especially if you host your own mail server | 14:48 |
| hector | anjuta is a good ide | 14:48 |
| jert_ | its all about the emacs :T | 14:49 |
| JPZ` | pumpkin_, ok, I'll see if that works. Thanks alot for your time. Do you by any chance know of another application other than that netprobe that might do a better job and not consume as much recources by any chance ? | 14:49 |
| Spabby | I thought I would need to edit xinitrc but it doesn't appear to call gnome | 14:49 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, for such a thing you will need to write your custom xinit script | 14:49 |
| scunizi | Spabby: why not just use elinks or something similar on cli | 14:49 |
| hector | but he has to learn how to use emacs | 14:49 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, for that, you need to be capable of reading the startx script contents :) | 14:49 |
| frostburn | space_cadet, i'd use the command line with either cp or rsync | 14:49 |
| space_cadet | bah it's not important | 14:49 |
| pumpkin_ | JPZ`, i don't need to know what is going over our network, so no. | 14:49 |
| space_cadet | just a windows iso | 14:50 |
| Spabby | joaopinto if I write a .xinitrc and put it in ~ will it stop gnome from starting? | 14:50 |
| hector | then what about a vim? | 14:50 |
| space_cadet | frostburn, thanks though | 14:50 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, yes, if you create a $HOME/.xinitrc , it will override the system init | 14:50 |
| JPZ` | pumpkin_, ok, thanks for the help though. | 14:50 |
| topriddy | darkvertex: Guess I'll have to install build-essential before codeblock | 14:50 |
| Spabby | see that isn't working | 14:50 |
| hbekel | Spabby: add "exec yourbrowser" to the end of your .xinitrc and run startx (i.e., start the browser in place of a wm). I can't tell you how that might interfere with a DM, though | 14:51 |
| space_cadet | allright | 14:51 |
| PartTimeJerk | I am running Jaunty 64 bit and am having trouble with my mouse (Logitech G5) will frequently stop working, I have tried another mouse (Razor Diamondback), and uplugging it and plugging it back in, but the only thing I've found to work is a full restart, please help | 14:51 |

| alex2 | hi how to turn off bluetooth ? | 14:52 |
| emretemp | well firefox seems to be a bit slow and memory eating monster on ubuntu. any other good browser recommentation will be gladly appr. except opera. | 14:52 |
| joaopinto | Spabby, sh -x $(which startx) , and check how the script flows | 14:52 |
| pragad | not able to use even normal visual effects in ubuntu | 14:52 |
| pragad | why | 14:53 |
| rrowell | I'm trying to start firefox and it keeps saying "Firefox is already running", but that isn't true, ps -aux | grep -i fire and ps -aux | grep -i moz both report nothing... I even restarted X just to make sure, nothing... How do I convince firefox it is OK to start? | 14:53 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: you can also use anjunta as your IDE, as hector mentioned | 14:53 |
| Halitech | rrowell, open a terminal and do killall -9 firefox-bin | 14:53 |
| alex2 | how to turn off bluetooth ? | 14:53 |
| hector | I remember when I started I was confused too. | 14:54 |
| grawity | rrowell: And if killall doesn't work, try deleting a file named "lock" in Firefox profile directory. (Somewhere in ~/.mozilla/) | 14:54 |
| pepperjack | alex2: im assuming the bluetooth shows up as a nic when doing sudo ifconfig -a? | 14:54 |
| rrowell | Halitech, there is no firefox running, like I said ps aux | grep -i fire returns zilch | 14:54 |
| pepperjack | alex2: sorry i dont know alot about bluetooth but sudo ifconfig eth0 down where eth0 is changed to the bluetooth device may work | 14:55 |
| Halitech | rrowell, then look for the lock file that grawity suggested | 14:55 |
| pragad | ubuntu refuses to allo w any visual effects in system>preferences>appearance>visual effects why | 14:55 |
| topriddy | darkvertex: anjunt provides RAD development and other Intellisense and nice features right? Thank you all as you have been helpful. I only need to get my wireless up and running and then I'll be as comfortable on Linux like I was on Windpws | 14:55 |
| frostburn | rrowell, you'll probably want to ask #firerox | 14:55 |
| Halitech | pragad, video driver may not support it | 14:55 |
| hbekel | rrowell: try rm .mozilla/firefox/<whatever>.default/lock if it exists | 14:55 |
| scunizi | pragad: you are using generic video drivers and haven't enabled ones that might be listed in system/admin/hardware drivers | 14:55 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: As I mentioned before, check your wifi availability through lspci and/or lshw | 14:56 |
| Spabby | seriously thank yo uso much | 14:56 |
| topriddy | pragad: I think your graphics driver doesnt support it. | 14:56 |
| pragad | scunizi it says that no proprietary drivers are in use on this system | 14:57 |
| scunizi | pragad: what kind of card do you have.? | 14:57 |
| cellofellow | pragad➜ do you know what video card you have? | 14:57 |
| rrowell | hbekel, TY, the lock file was the issue | 14:57 |
| Halitech | pragad, you could try envy to see if it can get a driver that will support compiz | 14:57 |
| pragad | i think intel 945 | 14:57 |
| scunizi | !envy | Halitech | 14:57 |
| ubottu | Halitech: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia drivers, which can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" or "envyng-qt". It is NOT a supported method to install them; please only use it at your own risks if standard methods fail - See !nVidia | 14:57 |
| * cellofellow didn't know i945 needed special drivers. | 14:57 | |
| topriddy | How do I do that? Its an inbuilt Wireless that comes with Inspirion. I don;t know jack about the tool you mentioned | 14:57 |
| Halitech | scunizi, was thinking he had said an older fx5200 | 14:58 |
| hbekel | rrowell: these types of errors often involve a stale lockfile | 14:58 |

Generally when i go to some ftp site a window appears requiring user and pass to login, but in my case when i go to my ftp server it doesnt prompt me for user and pass | 14:58 |
| cellofellow | pragad➜ though it might need XGL for Compiz, not 100% sure it supports AIGLX. | 14:58 |
| scunizi | pragad: you can check with lspci or sudo lshw | 14:58 |
| pragad | cello fellow intel945gc | 14:58 |
| scunizi | Halitech: still doesn't matter.. envy is never the recommended way | 14:58 |
| pepperjack | _XAXAB_O_P_E_X_: you want to disable anonymous login? | 14:58 |
| _XAXAB_O_P_E_X_ | i did that in vsftpd.conf | 14:59 |
| darkvertex | topriddy: just type lspci on your terminal. through it you'll see whether your wifi is recognized by ubuntu | 14:59 |
| _XAXAB_O_P_E_X_ | but it still logs me directly without the window prompting for user and pass | 14:59 |
| cellofellow | pragad➜ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/i915Driver | 15:00 |

| waaul | Halitech, a reboot is not quick, and even if it makes the sound work again it is not a fix. it is an unacceptable solution. | 16:17 |
| FernandoF | Pepperjack: reinstall is an option for me as well | 16:17 |
| LjL | IHS_intern: the command that Ubottu gave you will fix the error on the client side, but you also need your repository to have a key in the first place. i don't know exactly how that's done, but http://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository lists a few "repository makers" that support that, and http://wiki.debian.org/SecureApt describes the concept itself | 16:17 |
| TonyTheTiger | LjL-Temp: That didnt solve the problem as now its stuck at trying to connect to one of the sources at constant 0%. | 16:17 |
| rumpel | @ubuntuu the button is not really important... check, if the wlan-chipset is listed in a compatiblity list for linux | 16:17 |
| TonyTheTiger | 0% [Connecting to gb.archive.ubuntu.com (194.169.254.10)] | 16:17 |

| LjL | ez: there is none, i'm afraid | 16:18 |
| ubuntuuiut | rumpel: cannot, because i have no wireless or wired connection for the laptop | 16:18 |
| Halitech | FernandoF, check here under install without a cd ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 16:18 |
| pragad1 | ubuntu says dektop effects could not be enabled | 16:18 |
| ubuntuuiut | i am at a coffee shop | 16:18 |
| pepperjack | FernandoF: one option may be to boot installcd and try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux. i often run into problems with the liveinstall cd on older systems or on flaky cd/dvd drives. i've found the 'alternate install cd' rather than default install to be helpful in these situations | 16:18 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: well, those mirrors are just http sites... try going to http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ from a browser, see if that works | 16:18 |
| IHS_intern | ljl- Yeah, setting up the key in the first place is what I've been asking how to do for a week or 3, and your answer is now the best I've been given. Mostly I've gotten -no- answer and "ask your repo's admin..oh you are the admin..you're screwed" | 16:18 |

| TonyTheTiger | auto detect | 16:33 |
| mattgyver | !partial upgrade | 16:33 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about partial upgrade | 16:33 |
| alex1 | how i can set to that application can run only a root ? | 16:33 |
| alex1 | all ? | 16:33 |
| TonyTheTiger | LjL-Temp: its auto detect, not the url config one. | 16:33 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: ok | 16:33 |
| Halitech | second_thought, you could check here ... http://portforward.com/ | 16:34 |
| second_thought | I already setup the router connected to dsl line to forward the ip I want and the port range. | 16:34 |
| mattgyver | alex you can set that in the properties of the application, i dont remember how through command line | 16:34 |
| second_thought | thanks | 16:34 |
| alex1 | mattgyver: i want to set it all | 16:34 |
| alex1 | nope | 16:34 |
| alex1 | dont need it bye | 16:34 |
| tatters | what the syntax to copy a file to the disklabel rather than mountpoint | 16:35 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: look, load any website, and while it's loading, quickly send a "netstat -n" command | 16:35 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: that will list all your open connections - hopefully including the one to your proxy. you will have to guess which one that might be (look for LAN-like addresses) | 16:35 |

| eper3z | ok ty | 16:36 |
| second_thought | ah ha, I'm just stupid. The reason the portforwarding isn't working is probably cuz I can't even set it with the dsl router. Darn, time to call verizon... | 16:37 |
| pragad1 | comoplete noob here with ubuntu installed just yesterday. i have to get some animation software working in ubuntu.but i see that i could not even turn on the visual effects in system>preferences>appearance>visual effects.ubuntu searches for drivers and does not find them .my graphic card is intel 945g | 16:38 |
| second_thought | exit | 16:38 |
| second_thought | hoops... | 16:38 |
| second_thought | not the command line | 16:38 |
| docmax | when i disable GDM ubuntu works in a strange way (drives are not automounted, sounds are not working)... but i want to start ubuntu via "startx", any ideas? | 16:41 |
| pragad1 | docmax ubuntu is not able to find drivers for intel 945 g help | 16:42 |
| darkvertex | docmax: change default runlevel? | 16:42 |
| pacejr | docmax: i bet you need to add things to your x session | 16:43 |
| docmax | darkvertex, can u be more precise? | 16:43 |
| docmax | what must i do? | 16:43 |
| TonyTheTiger | What is the command to open a file which requires admin rights from a terminal, something gedit or something. | 16:44 |
| pragad1 | pacejr help | 16:44 |
| pepperjack | TonyTheTiger: sudo nano filename | 16:44 |
| pepperjack | TonyTheTiger: basically nano or vi or any text editor | 16:44 |
| celthunder | TonyTheTiger, sudeo vi | 16:44 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: or gksudo gedit filename | 16:44 |
| pragad1 | ubuntu not able to find drivers for my graphic card pacejr help | 16:44 |
| celthunder | pragad1, what graphics card? | 16:44 |
| pacejr | pragad1: X should automatically detect | 16:44 |
| pragad1 | intel 945g | 16:44 |
| clever | celthunder: 'sudo vi' is bad, use sudoedit | 16:45 |
| TonyTheTiger | thanks to everyone. | 16:45 |
| pragad1 | what is x | 16:45 |
| pragad1 | i am unable to enable normal viusal effects | 16:45 |
| pragad1 | ubuntu says unable to turn on desktop effects. | 16:45 |
| celthunder | clever, using vi as root is bad? since when? how do you configure your system without vi? | 16:45 |
| TonyTheTiger | ok i opened a text editor one, says ^X to exit, but it wont exit. | 16:46 |
| odinsbane | pragad1 what type of wireless card are you using? | 16:46 |
| LjL | clever: well, it's as bad as "sudo nano" or "gksudo gedit". | 16:46 |
| hbekel | docmax: probably you'll need to have hal and dbus running, as well as start gnome using exec gnome-session from your .xinitrc | 16:46 |
| odinsbane | pragad1: I mean video card | 16:46 |
| clever | celthunder: using it your way runs vi as root, with your own home dir, which can screw up your vi config | 16:46 |
| LjL | TonyTheTiger: it means CTRL+X | 16:46 |
| Pici | !x | pragad1 | 16:46 |
| ubottu | pragad1: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 16:46 |
| pragad1 | odinsbane intel 945 g | 16:46 |
| clever | celthunder: 'sudoedit' will run vi as your own user, which solves that problem and several others | 16:46 |
| odinsbane | pragad1: I have the same trouble are you using jaunty? | 16:46 |
| docmax | hbekel, so switching off GDM is not that easy? | 16:46 |
| pragad1 | no ibex | 16:46 |
| celthunder | clever, good to know thanks | 16:47 |
| pragad1 | jaunty hasnt come out yet has it | 16:47 |
| hbekel | docmax: no idea, i don't use either | 16:47 |
| Pici | pragad1: No, it hasn't. | 16:47 |
| thiebaude | pragad1: thursday | 16:47 |
| clever | celthunder: sudoedit will simply run whatever you put in EDITOR, so you could set that to any editor you want | 16:47 |
| clever | celthunder: read the man page :) | 16:47 |
| Pici | clever, celthunder: as will visudo | 16:47 |
| hwilde | how do I test the ethernet port link speed please ? | 16:47 |
| odinsbane | pragad1: not officially, I think that compiz blacklisted the 945g because otherwise it causes your computer to crash. | 16:47 |
| pragad1 | odinsbane jaunty hasnt come out yet | 16:47 |

| tanveer | oh | 17:15 |
| EagleScreen | I don't know any reason for it, RPS | 17:15 |
| tanveer | does ubuntu support old dells? | 17:15 |
| IHS_intern | Musikgoat|main There's a third party I think supporting the PS3, and Cell is PowerPC compat. and there are kernel extensions for the SPEs | 17:15 |

| con-man | ok Im getting this message when running the windows Contivity VPN client with wine (and yes I have to do this the natvie linux one is not an option): Eacfilt driver must be bound to active interface(s): eth0 | 17:16 |
| IHS_intern | Third party supporting Ubuntu on the PS3* | 17:16 |
| con-man | does anyone have ideas? | 17:16 |
| geoffrey | hum? | 17:16 |
| musikgoat|main | IHS_intern: interesting, i'm not aware of that, i didn't think the ubuntu built kernel has cell support, so they must be using a different kernel build | 17:17 |
| stephen_ | Hi. Is there a netbook specific channel? | 17:17 |
| george_ | oh noooo! To get adobe air installed i coppied 32 bit libs to my /libs32 folder (im 64bit ubuntu) now when i run the flock browser (which everything used to work) i get flashplayer.so [/opt/flock/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64] Segmentation fault | 17:17 |
| george_ | and it just crashes | 17:17 |
| stephen_ | I'd like to know how the netbook remix differs from the desktop edition. | 17:17 |
| MrNaz` | OI! | 17:17 |
| MrNaz` | where's 9.04?! | 17:18 |
| * MrNaz` looks under the bed | 17:18 | |
| musikgoat|main | stephen_: i've visited #eeepc for netbook discussions, but that is not ubuntu specific | 17:18 |
| RPS | EagleScreen, is there a 64 bit version of Jaunty? I assume so, but you know what they say about assuming. | 17:18 |
| musikgoat|main | RPS: yes | 17:18 |
| celthunder | RPS, yes theres a 64 bit | 17:18 |
| EagleScreen | yes | 17:18 |
| IHS_intern | musikgoat|main, yeah, I think it's a different kernel. But to anyone using it from the GUI, it's just ubuntu on the PS3. | 17:18 |
| stephen_ | musikgoat|main: I'll ask in there. Thanks. | 17:19 |
| IHS_intern | and the CLI not using features to actually say what kernel..still just ubuntu on the PS3. | 17:19 |
| EagleScreen | there is power pc port of ubuntu for PS3 | 17:19 |
| tanveer | i tried ubuntu on my old computer with only 128mb ram and ubuntu said thers not enough memory? | 17:19 |
| frostburn | how do i reload my window manager, by the by | 17:19 |
| papa | bonsoir | 17:19 |
| harrach_ | i have tried to run xubuntu 9.04 release candidate from the live cd but the booting process stopped with something like 'power-k8 no dsp' or so and then 'loading, please wait...' and nothing happening | 17:19 |
| RPS | cool I have been waiting to do the 2nd laptop until Jaunty came out ....now how much do leave for Vista64 and Ubuntu64 ??? (Cue Jeopardy Theme) 250gb HDD. | 17:19 |
| IHS_intern | Tanveer, xubuntu runs fine on 256MB, and "ok" on 196MB..and would run on 128. | 17:20 |
| EagleScreen | tanveer: it is not enought memory, try xubuntu | 17:20 |
| IHS_intern | Gnome is a bit of a hog | 17:20 |
| tanveer | okay | 17:20 |
| RPS | I'm thinking 249gb for Ubuntu64 and 1 gb for Vista. ;) I'm kidding | 17:20 |
| tanveer | do you recommend i get 512mb ram? | 17:20 |
| WNz | tanveer: i don't think 128 is enough for xubuntu either | 17:20 |
| celthunder | tanveer try awesome or lxfce or xfce instead of gnome | 17:20 |
| mLavaert | Does Ubuntu 8.04 LTS x64 support 12GB of DD3 RAM | 17:20 |
| WNz | tanveer: you're better off ditching the old computer ;) | 17:21 |
| tanveer | but my main computer only has 2gb ram | 17:21 |
| george_ | oh noooo! To get adobe air installed i coppied 32 bit libs to my /libs32 folder (im 64bit ubuntu) now when i run the flock browser (which everything used to work) i get flashplayer.so [/opt/flock/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64] Segmentation fault | 17:21 |
| RPS | 150gb for Ubuntu and 100gb for Vista64 ...I'm running 4 gb of ram ...I think it will be ok. | 17:21 |
| IHS_intern | WNz, as I said, xubuntu will run on 128MB of RAM, but wouldn't be comfortable untill 256. and The school I'm "working" for is using 600mhz Pentium 3's upgraded to 256MB of RAM. | 17:21 |
| frostburn | mLavaert, yes, but does your motherboard | 17:22 |
| WNz | tanveer: nothing wrong with 2 gb ram | 17:22 |
| tanveer | butit was 256mb ram when i bought it | 17:22 |
| * regeya remembers running slack on 8mb...ah... | 17:22 | |

| tanveer | whats better windows vista or linux ubuntu? | 17:23 |
| geoffrey | lol | 17:23 |
| mLavaert | Ubuntu Linux | 17:23 |
| musikgoat|main | mLavaert: what do you have that would really use 12GB ram? | 17:23 |
| frostburn | frostburn, you can run a comiz-manager&;disown (yes i messaged myself incase someone greps the irc logs) | 17:23 |
| RPS | time for a reboot ...I lose my audio every couple of days on 8.10 ...it stinks | 17:23 |
| vigo | I run Xubuntu on 256mb of RAM, (1998 AMS Tech lapt) | 17:23 |
| frostburn | tanveer, depends on what the system is being used for | 17:23 |
| harrach_ | tanveer: windows 7 might be comparable, but vista is trash | 17:23 |
| musikgoat|main | !best | tanveer | 17:23 |
| ubottu | tanveer: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 17:23 |
| tstreit | ubuntu linux all the way | 17:23 |
| WNz | mLavaert: a better question is why anyone would need 12 gb of ram | 17:23 |
| mLavaert | musikgoat: I work a lot with Blender | 17:23 |
| frostburn | harrach_, it isn't trash, I use it as much as I use any other distro | 17:24 |
| IHS_intern | WNz, runs smoothly for me. But I'm not running anything but Firefox and OpenOffice that might eat a lot of resources. and 384MB of vram helps a bit...not much, but better with than without. | 17:24 |
| musikgoat|main | mLavaert: ok, reasonable then | 17:24 |
| Daemonus | how much ram ubuntu 32bit can handle? | 17:24 |
| Daemonus | 4 gig? | 17:24 |
| WNz | tanveer: linux and winblows are pretty much uncomparible | 17:24 |
| celthunder | Daemonus, yes | 17:24 |
| tanveer | if i asked bill gates what is better ubuntu or vista what would he say? | 17:24 |
| frostburn | Daemonus, with PAE, a lot more than 4 | 17:24 |
| WNz | though i have to say 7 is looking much better than previous versions | 17:24 |
| geoffrey | if you want to clean your system: dpkg -l | grep ^rc | awk '{print $2}' | xargs dpkg -P | 17:24 |

| italo33 | alguém do Brasil aí? | 17:24 |

| geoffrey | relol | 17:25 |
| celthunder | WNz, i have 8gb and 12gb in both my coputers ... ive used 11 out of 12 and 7 out of 8.... it isnt hard to fill up ram | 17:25 |
| mLavaert | tanveer: Ubuntu | 17:25 |
| tanveer | ok | 17:25 |
| harrach_ | tanveer: what do you use your pc for? | 17:25 |
| tanveer | word office , homework, some old games, internet and that stuff | 17:25 |
| mLavaert | celthunder: Is it DDR3 memory, if yes do had you any troubles with it? | 17:26 |
| IHS_intern | tanveer, depends on needs. if you need 99.8% compat with windows software and it is absolutely critical, go with win7. | 17:26 |
| === stephen_ is now known as steveire | ||

When I try to use the login.html screen we made, when I hit login instead of executing the script it asks if I want to save or open it instead. found this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=618525 but it hasn't helped. any ideas? | 17:28 |
| tanveer | but i dont like old software and i also hate paying for stuff | 17:28 |
| musikgoat|main | george_: if you want to remove all user configurations, then use purge instead of remove | 17:28 |
| celthunder | bercik i got about 140 fps in wine about 200 in vmware and 360 when i was running straight from windows....anything over 75 i dont see anyway (cheap monitor) only bad thing is my surround sound dont work in wine | 17:28 |
| gartral | tanveer: note, nothing can exist on the same DRIVE as windows 7, and the boot loader will not allow a dual-boot, in short, no, you should keep XP | 17:28 |
| harrach_ | tanveer if you hate paying, then use ubuntu | 17:28 |
| yellabs | hi there | 17:28 |
| IHS_intern | If you need an OS that browses the web, plays games, edits images, and has 40-80% compat. with windows software, oh, and doesn't cost any money to stay up-to-date and doesnt cost a lot to get the software you need, go with ubuntu. | 17:29 |

| frostburn | gartral, if these errors only happened after you put in you card, make sure the ide/sata cables didn't get bent or dislodged | 17:31 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | celthunder:dont have the option it was ok untill i installed updates | 17:31 |
| musikgoat|main | tanveer: yes | 17:31 |
| tanveer | so i have to use grub? | 17:31 |
| musikgoat|main | yes | 17:31 |
| gartral | frostburn: i wouldnt be able to boot a live cd to talk to you if the cables were ajar | 17:31 |
| musikgoat|main | windows boot loader doesn't understand linux partitions | 17:31 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | celthunder: already at highest... it was fin untill i installed updates | 17:32 |
| musikgoat|main | tanveer: you have to use grub or lilo | 17:32 |
| yellabs | easybcd does , thats an windows based bootlaoder | 17:32 |
| tanveer | when win7 comes out is linux/grub thingy going to get loads of updates? | 17:32 |
| musikgoat|main | or follow yellabs suggestion | 17:32 |
| hitsmaxft | #ubuntu-cn | 17:32 |
| frostburn | gartral, are they on the same ide ribbon? and at what location. if you remove the card, it boots fine? | 17:32 |
| pepperjack | tanveer: id say the win7 bootloader will just be a rehash of vistas | 17:32 |

| gartral | frostburn: well, the drive mounted from knoppix ok | 17:34 |
| babio | yellabs: how can i do that...could u explain to me? | 17:34 |
| frostburn | tanveer, run DSL or similar distro | 17:34 |
| yellabs | tanveer, the gui of any modern operating system is heavy | 17:34 |
| gordonjcp | tanveer: however, for it to work well it would need to be a fairly stripped-down version | 17:34 |
| frostburn | gartral, can it read all files though? there might be bad sectors | 17:34 |
| musikgoat|main | tanveer: xp regular edition cant, just like ubuntu regular editions cant... someone already suggested others for you | 17:34 |
| gordonjcp | tanveer: don't forget that Windows XP is really very old and obsolete now | 17:34 |
| frostburn | gartral, run a fsck on it, if you're in knoppix | 17:35 |

| carthik | jon23d, if it is a network share, maybe some other user on some machine did the damage? | 18:18 |

| Pici | FernandoF: Are yout trying to install Ubuntu or install some package? | 18:21 |
| carthik | rosepetal, in my experience, when you uncleanly remove a fat filesystem, it goes into locked mode or some such, and it is easier to plug it into a win machine to fix that.... | 18:22 |

| carthik | JuJuBee, hmm, you can set the search field appropriately, but if the inividual machines (not sure if you have them, or if they're just consoles) don't use that server as a dns server, I don't know how it will work out | 18:25 |
| carthik | jon23d, I am out of my depth here, sorry - can't see why certain specific files would go missing and not others | 18:26 |

| JuJuBee | carthik: I use static dns settings so each computer gets the same IP and dns settings I want them to get. But with NAT, I thought I should set the server to use the DNS settingns for opendns. What search field are you referring to? In resolv.conf? Can I use IP there? | 18:27 |

| space_cadet | KingKimi, you have 4 windows partitions.... | 18:42 |

| xnmrph | gene420, so it's more secure to use the force user option? | 18:45 |

| space_cadet | partitions 5 and 6 are both around 20 gigs | 18:46 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, yes ? | 18:46 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, so ? | 18:46 |
| space_cadet | so I would try mounting them to see if they contain a windows installation kingkimi | 18:46 |

| KingKimi | space_cadet, i did.. it has all my files and not xp | 18:47 |

| freeanshu | Now we need to create a mount point for the device, let's say we want to call it “external”. You can call it whatever you want, just please don't use spaces in the name or it gets a little more complicated - use an underscore to separate words (like "my_usb"). We can create the mount point as follows: | 18:49 |

| === Lartza_ is now known as Lartza_away | ||
| xnmrph | gene420. I suppose I'm confused as to why the howto specifies having these forceuser etc options and you have to remove those options to get it to work | 18:51 |

| jackstraw | ok I have a small problom, I was trying to adjust the screen resolution on my desktop. when I did I accidently got the resolution to a bigger format and I cant go back to re adjust the other settings. the screen wont show the bottom of the window to fix it back. any suggestions? | 18:56 |
| xnmrph | gene420, how can they access home dirs? When I access the directory, it only allows me access to the /media/raid share. I can't "get to" anywhere else...or can I ? | 18:56 |
| freeanshu | is it possible that I customize my Ubuntu and distribute it? If do how | 18:56 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: Go to system | 18:56 |
| freeanshu | preferences | 18:56 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: Go to screen resolution | 18:57 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, that command did NOT work | 18:57 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, that just say "say man 8 mount" | 18:57 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: is it ok? | 18:57 |
| gene420 | for example if you used domain / home directories and gene and xnmrph are logged into the domain with the same rights I would be able to see your home dir and you would be able to see mine since we are under the same group rights | 18:57 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, PLEASE see my PMessage :( | 18:57 |
| KingKimi | space_cadet, bye | 18:58 |
| jackstraw | thats what I did , I cant see the bottom of the screen to make any changes | 18:58 |
| gene420 | that way you wouldn't need to great a group for each user | 18:58 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: cant move the windows too? | 18:58 |
| xnmrph | gene420 - I don't know a lot about this so please bear with me. If I have a shared mount, how can a user log in and access other directories ? | 18:58 |
| gene420 | still learning myself so I'm sure someone could add to this but my understanding is that | 18:58 |
| leejongwook | hi, do i need to upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 (?) | 18:59 |
| blackest | jackstraw: hold down left alt click on the window and drag | 18:59 |
| jackstraw | I can move the window, but I cant move it to see the bottom | 18:59 |
| Aquinus | leejongwook: No. Only if you want to. | 18:59 |
| leejongwook | thanks :) | 18:59 |
| bc | I apologize if this is a dumb question, but do I have to have Xorg running to be able to use a wireless keyboard? | 18:59 |
| ai3gtmc | hmm | 18:59 |
| Aquinus | bc: Shouldn | 19:00 |
| jackstraw | hold on let me try that | 19:00 |
| Aquinus | bc: Shouldn't** | 19:00 |
| wrice | bc: no | 19:00 |
| Gartral | frostburn: http://gar.pastebin.com/m261cdc5b | 19:00 |
| bc | many thank yous | 19:00 |
| ai3gtmc | why is it that ubuntu won't read the overclocked ghz? i overclocked my CPU but it still detects the original GHz | 19:00 |
| jackstraw | it didnt work | 19:01 |
| blindlord | hi | 19:01 |
| blindlord | anyone speak italian? | 19:01 |
| frostburn | Gartral, oh interesting... looks like fstab has changed | 19:01 |
| xnmrph | gene420 - have to go for dinner now. Thanks for your help | 19:01 |
| gene420 | under home directories or in your pastbin there is a profile declared but not in use so if it where used each user that is logged in would have there home directory share present on the network | 19:01 |
| Pici | !it | blindlord | 19:01 |
| ubottu | blindlord: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 19:01 |
| gene420 | l8r | 19:02 |
| blindlord | thanks | 19:02 |
| Gartral | frostburn: this good or bad, right now, its at a busy box promt | 19:02 |
| blackest | jackstraw: wonder if you could ssh in from somewhere and do it that way | 19:02 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: try this | 19:02 |
| freeanshu | gksudo displayconfig-gtk | 19:02 |
| frostburn | Gartral, good, might be recoverable | 19:02 |
| Gartral | frostburn: your the man | 19:03 |
| frostburn | Gartral, did you use wubi to install? | 19:03 |
| ShinyHat | could someone please explain to me how to search a folder on an xp machine over a network by filetype? | 19:03 |
| Gartral | frostburn: no, installed directly, no other OS on that box | 19:03 |
| === root is now known as Guest95113 | ||
| blackest | or sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change or delete the lowest resolution or boot from a live cd and edit from there | 19:03 |
| Aquinus | Older versions of X.org let you change the resolution in the xserver-xorg config. | 19:04 |
| Aquinus | via dkpg-reconfigure | 19:04 |
| freeanshu | jackstraw: nything?? | 19:04 |
| Aquinus | ^dkpg^dpkg | 19:04 |
| jackstraw | thanks alot it worked yall rule | 19:05 |
| freeanshu | ok | 19:05 |
| frostburn | Gartral, i'd boot into knoppix, do a ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid and compare to your fstab cat /etc/fstab | 19:05 |
| lightpriest_ | has anyone tried blueman with A2DP devices? | 19:05 |
| === rolie is now known as Rolie | ||
| freeanshu | how can i install Open Solaris along with Ubuntu | 19:06 |
| frostburn | Gartral, you'll want to see if the uuids have been changed around at all... if they have, backup your fstab and replace with the newer uuids | 19:06 |
| Aquinus | freeanshu: two separate partitions using GRUB, but I'm not sure if anything special needs to be done, I haven't touched Solaris. | 19:07 |
| freeanshu | Consider that I want the Ubuntu GRUB to start things | 19:07 |
| lightpriest_ | frostburn, there's also blkid that lists types as well | 19:07 |
| Gartral | frostburn: ok, break this down, drop into knoppix, type ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid and the cat /etc/fstab, correct? | 19:07 |
| frostburn | Gartral, you'll need to mount the /root drive and cat /mnt/yourrootdrivehere/etc/fstab | 19:07 |
| freeanshu | Aquinus: Ok | 19:08 |
| frostburn | and change if accordingly | 19:08 |
| neurobuntu | #ubuntu+1 | 19:08 |
| Aquinus | freeanshu: You should try making a virtual machine and test it on on there, that is your best bet to see how it will act. | 19:08 |
| Gartral | ok, root drive is hda1, easy enough | 19:08 |
| Gartral | ill brb | 19:08 |
| freeanshu | Aquinus: Thats definetly a very good idea | 19:08 |
| freeanshu | thanx | 19:09 |
| Aquinus | np | 19:09 |
| lightpriest_ | has anyone tried blueman with A2DP devices? | 19:09 |
| frostburn | Gartral, or use the command lightpriest_ suggested blkid | 19:09 |
| lightpriest_ | A2DP for those bluetooth speakers | 19:09 |
| freeanshu | is it possible that I customize my Ubuntu and distribute it? If do how | 19:10 |
| freeanshu | is it possible that I customize my Ubuntu and distribute it? If yes how? | 19:10 |
| ShinyHat | could someone please explain to me how to search a folder on an xp machine over a network by filetype? | 19:11 |
| drinkycrow | freeanshu: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ is as close as you're gonna get | 19:11 |
| Gartral | frostburn: well try your way first | 19:11 |
| hlfshell | cd pyen | 19:11 |
| hlfshell | oops | 19:11 |
| vigo | freeanshu: Sure, just abide by the GNU stuff. | 19:11 |
| dalton2345 | hi everyone, jaunty official release is tomorrow right? | 19:11 |
| hbekel | ShinyHat: just like you'd search any other folder | 19:11 |
| === natschil_ is now known as natschil | ||
| freeanshu | ryt | 19:12 |
| ShinyHat | hbekel: when i search a mounted samba share, it returns no results | 19:12 |
| hlfshell | Hello - I am currently running ubuntu linux and need to add a module to the python module folder. where is this located in ubuntu? | 19:12 |
| lightpriest_ | dalton2345, that's the scheduled date.. yes | 19:13 |
| hbekel | ShinyHat: it? | 19:13 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, how do you search? | 19:13 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, find is case sensitive | 19:14 |
| ShinyHat | i have been using the search button :| | 19:14 |
| ShinyHat | perhaps that is not the right way to search? | 19:15 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, if you "mounted" it using the "Places > Connect to a server" it should be in ~/.gvfs | 19:15 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, you could also just type 'mount' in the terminal and see where it is mounted | 19:15 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_: i mounted them to a folder in /home | 19:16 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, did you search on *.ext? Because "the search button" does not seem to support wildcards | 19:16 |
| ShinyHat | rolie: that would probably be my issue, then | 19:17 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, if it IS mounted, it should appear when you run mount with no params | 19:17 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_: it appears, but as rolie just mentioned the search feature doesn't seem to support wildcards | 19:17 |
| ShinyHat | rolie: so how do i search for all files of a type? | 19:18 |
| Gartral | frostburn: oh crap.... the uuids match... | 19:18 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, oke, then you should open a command line, cd to the mount point and use find: find . -iname *.ext | 19:18 |
| frostburn | Gartral, hmm | 19:19 |
| dalton2345 | so how long will it took me to download jaunty..it will take for ever...so many people are waiting for it | 19:19 |
| Mikaeln | I want to connect to my network (wpa security) from the shell... how do I do? | 19:19 |
| ShinyHat | rolie: that seems a bit cumbersome to, for example, display all mp4s in a folder | 19:19 |
| andyross | dalton2345: use the torrent. But AFAIK, the release isn't on the mirrors yet... | 19:19 |
| frostburn | Gartral, check cat /dirwhereyoumounted/boot/menu.lst | 19:20 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, or just search (with the button :)) without a wildcard, but I don't know whether that would give too much false positives... | 19:20 |
| Gartral | frostburn: where i mounted what, my drive? | 19:20 |
| frostburn | Gartral, check cat /dirwhereyoumounted/boot/grub/menu.lst correction | 19:20 |
| frostburn | yes | 19:20 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, because as far as I know there is no such feature to search for specific file types (extensions) within Nautilus | 19:20 |
| dalton2345 | andyross: i do the latest rc release, do u think i should burn it to a cd and experiment with it or just wait tomorrow | 19:21 |
| Pici | !jaunty | 19:21 |
| ubottu | Jaunty Jackalope is the codename for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 23rd, 2009 - Schedule in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule - JAUNTY IS NOT YET RELEASED - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party | 19:21 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, in nautilus you could add a filter to the results. click on the plus and you'll have a file type selection. just select "Videos" | 19:21 |
| neurobuntu | dalton2345, wait | 19:21 |
| ShinyHat | rolie: i guess i've been locked into windows too long- failing to see the obvious, simple solution. searching mp3 gave exactly what i was after | 19:22 |
| Gartral | all uuids are the same... | 19:22 |
| ShinyHat | rolie: i kinda feel silly now:-/ | 19:22 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, no need to feel silly :) in the file type selection you have other as well with a list of specific types. | 19:23 |
| akritiko | hello guys. A quick question. I have an Asus eeePC 1000h. Earlier at office I had to use is as my main machine and I plugged in it the keyboard and the mouse I use at office. Now that I opened the machine at home the keyboard does not respond appropriate. E.g. when I hit k, I get 2, when l, I get 3 and so on. | 19:23 |
| dalton2345 | neurobuntu: yes u right, i can wait another day, the thing is i hope i'll be able to download it, cause the servers will be full | 19:23 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_: thanks for that also. maybe after enough linux experience i will get it through my head that it doesnt have to be as difficult as i was used to | 19:23 |
| neurobuntu | dalton2345, use bittorrent | 19:23 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, :) But as I see now, there ís a way. Hard to explain but after searching I get a sort of yellow bar in which I can add / remove search conditions amongst which I can specify a file type..., as lightpriest_ mentioned | 19:23 |
| neurobuntu | dalton2345, that way you get the latest download at high speeds and you help other people at the same time | 19:23 |
| akritiko | If anyone knows sth please help | 19:23 |
| Gartral | frostburn: all uuids appear to be the same | 19:24 |
| neurobuntu | akritiko, check for num luck | 19:24 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, you'll find it much more efficient after you'll tweak gnome to your needs :) | 19:24 |
| frostburn | Gartral, at this point i'd either make a post on the forums, or copy off the data you need to a thumbdrive and reinstall | 19:24 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, and congrats for moving away from windows :D | 19:25 |
| akritiko | Bulls eye neurobuntu, you are a life savior | 19:25 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_, rolie: thank you both for the help! | 19:25 |
| akritiko | thanks a lot | 19:25 |
| Rolie | ShinyHat, np! | 19:25 |
| neurobuntu | akritiko, its happened to us all | 19:25 |
| Gartral | frostburn: this system has no decent usb, and i dont have a 25 gb thumbdrive... is there ANY way to recover? | 19:25 |
| dalton2345 | is it at 12am or sometime tomorrow, if anyone know | 19:25 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_:there are only 2 things left that keep me a bit bound to windows | 19:25 |
| akritiko | I guess you are right | 19:26 |
| lightpriest_ | ShinyHat, I bet I could find a replacement for them :P | 19:26 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, is this a desktop or a laptop? | 19:26 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: desktop | 19:26 |
| neurobuntu | can you put an additional HD in? | 19:26 |
| dassouki | why does my laptop consume more processing power using ubuntu vs. vista .. the fan is always on and it's warm (Beagle and search indexing are disabled, and the visual effects are not enabled) | 19:26 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: if i had the money to buy one | 19:26 |
| frostburn | Gartral, possibly, but i'm not sure if i'll be of any help... | 19:26 |
| ShinyHat | lightpriest_: if you can help, i would be forever grateful- i use logmein for remote IT purposes, which seems to hate everything but activex | 19:26 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, what is the problem exactly? | 19:27 |
| akritiko | What I didn't know is that the NumLk mode is preserved even after a reboot | 19:27 |
| Steve^ | Does any use Adobe AIR? I've tried a couple of twitter clients for it, but when I click URLs nothing happens. I need to configure my browser somehow? | 19:27 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: wont boot into ubuntu, takes me to ramfs busybox | 19:27 |
| george- | how do i reconfigure x in terminal, I can not boot into xwindows, i get a black screen with a box saying its unsupported on bootup | 19:27 |
| Gartral | http://gar.pastebin.com/m261cdc5b | 19:27 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, do you have a liveCD? | 19:27 |
| Gartral | last neurobuntu | 19:27 |
| george- | i need enable the nvidia drivers, how can i do this from terminal | 19:27 |
| neurobuntu | do you have free space on your HDD? | 19:27 |
| akritiko | Steve sometimes is firewall's fault (if you use any) | 19:28 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: booted into knoppix right now, i cant find my ubuntu cd | 19:28 |
| neurobuntu | how much data is on your HDD and how much free space do you have? | 19:28 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, ^^ | 19:28 |
| thewrath | how easy is it to set up dns as your first dns server and then your ips as your second and so on | 19:28 |
| george- | how do i reconfigure x in terminal, I can not boot into xwindows, i get a black screen with a box saying its unsupported on bootup | 19:29 |
| george- | i need enable the nvidia drivers, how can i do this from terminal | 19:29 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: i have nealy 88% full on a 60 gig drive, 25 gigs is ALL home data | 19:29 |
| frostburn | thewrath, easy, change your /etc/resolv.conf | 19:29 |
| isiah | I been trying to download jaunty, but every site I got to seems to require a torrent. Anyone know a non-torrent site? | 19:29 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, are you running a knoppix liveCD? | 19:29 |
| hbekel | george-: are the drivers installed yet? | 19:29 |
| Steve^ | How do I change my default web browser, when links are clicked? | 19:29 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: as of this moment, yes, knoppix 5.1.1 | 19:29 |
| thewrath | frostburn: you know of a good tutorial to do this | 19:29 |
| lightpriest_ | isiah, you could download the netinstall | 19:29 |
| george- | hbekel im not sure, how do i check? | 19:29 |
| djuggler | Hello all! I think I may need some hand holding. I've got ubuntu desktop up and going and it surfs the Internet fine. If I go to places->Netowrk I can see my windows network but my windows network doesn't see the ubuntu box. Where should I be looking? | 19:29 |
| hateball | !samba | djuggler | 19:30 |
| ubottu | djuggler: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 19:30 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, do you have a seperate /home partition? | 19:30 |
| frostburn | thewrath, man resolv.conf | 19:30 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: unfortuently, no | 19:30 |
| thewrath | ok | 19:30 |
| george- | lol i hate this ircii | 19:30 |
| bassliner | george-: use irssi. | 19:30 |
| scunizi | djuggler: right click a folder you'd like to share on the ubuntu box and choose share.. it'll set things up to be visable | 19:30 |
| thewrath | first i would have to install the dns server on my ubuntu machine, then edit the resolv.conf file. but i could use it as a preliminary dns server in case the dns server that my isp users ever goes down | 19:31 |
| oshua86_ | george-, IRSSI is the bomb | 19:31 |
| oshua86_ | :D | 19:31 |
| thewrath | i can just keep all records in my dns server? is that correct frostburn | 19:31 |
| scunizi | IRSSI + Screen | 19:31 |
| thewrath | +1 scunizi | 19:31 |
| bassliner | irssi + screen is the only thing to go | 19:31 |
| oshua86_ | scunizi, damn right | 19:31 |
| oshua86_ | lol | 19:31 |
| george_ | lol irssi is much better | 19:31 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, this is what I would do.... 1) download and burn the liveCD 2) boot the live CD 3) run Partition Editor (under System-->Admin-->Partitions or something like that) 4) resize your current partition (shrink by 10gigs), 5) create a new partition 6) install ubuntu to this new paritition | 19:31 |
| scunizi | split screen window with irssi on top and mutt on the bottom | 19:32 |
| george_ | ok any one know how to come by my fix, the problem is i need to download the nvidia driver for xwindows(i cant remember the name of it, its the one for newer cards) | 19:32 |
| frostburn | thewrath, what are you trying to accomplish? | 19:32 |
| george_ | how do i install that from terminal? | 19:32 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, that will get you so you can boot and access this data, but you really need to create a backup of some sort | 19:32 |
| scunizi | george_: sudo apt-get install irssi | 19:32 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, then create a / partition and a seperate /home partition | 19:32 |
| oshua86_ | hey guys, i got a question, i got a HDE harddrive that I connected to my ubuntu pC via usb with an adapter, but for some reason I get a message that says "unable to mount" it has an ntfs partition, any help plz? | 19:32 |
| thewrath | frostburn: i want to set up a dns server that will be the primary one that i use | 19:32 |
| thewrath | at my residents | 19:32 |
| thewrath | instead of my isp one | 19:32 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: i dont have 10 gigs... | 19:32 |
| george_ | scunizi no i have irssii im on it, i need to know how to install the nvidia drivers for xwin from terminal | 19:33 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, how much do you have? do you have 5? | 19:33 |
| george_ | because i cant boot into xwin | 19:33 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, 5 is enough | 19:33 |
| scunizi | george_: just cought that.. do you have the driver downloaded yet? | 19:33 |
| george_ | scunizi no | 19:33 |
| frostburn | thewrath, if you want to install a dns server you'll want to install bind, there's plenty of tutorials on the web to do that | 19:33 |
| piglit | what was the command to see wat is going on on the network, i need to know because the network is slow slow slow ... and i tried several dns servers | 19:33 |
| dummkopf48227 | hom many hours left 'til Jaunty? | 19:33 |
| Rifo0 | hi, is there a way to install winxp through ubuntu? coz my thinkpad has a supervisor password and doesn't lemme boot from the CDROM, and when i add the CDROM on the Boot Grub it runs ubuntu cd but doesn't run WinXp cdrom install! | 19:33 |
| scunizi | george_: ok.. hang on and I'll get a link for using wget to retrieve it. | 19:33 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, but once you start the parition editor DON'T stop it, it will work but it will take anywhere from 30 minutes until 10 hours to move an rearrange all the data | 19:33 |
| george_ | scunizi shouldnt there be an apt-get install for the nvidia driver? | 19:33 |
| neurobuntu | dummkopf48227, go to #ubuntu-launch-party | 19:34 |
| george_ | k | 19:34 |
| scunizi | george_: yes.. what card do you have | 19:34 |
| thewrath | frostburn: so i can install bind and edit that file you told me about and then i can use it how i want to? | 19:34 |
| frostburn | piglit, define going on the network? | 19:34 |
| Daremonai | how can I disable DNS Server Recursive Query ? | 19:34 |
| dummkopf48227 | neurobuntu: oh thx | 19:34 |
| piglit | frostburn: pages are slow loading if they are loading at all | 19:34 |
| george_ | 9800 series, i just remember it being the newer driver of the two nvidia drivers | 19:34 |
| thewrath | frostburn: the use would be as a preliminary dns server that all computers on my network would utilize first and if it was down then it would use my isp or another one that i would wnat | 19:34 |
| Gartral | neurobuntu: i have 2 gb free | 19:34 |
| neodemi | i just formatted an external drive to use 2, and upon remounting it i cannot copy files to it, im recieving a 'permission denied' error when i attempt | 19:34 |
| neodemi | use ext 2* | 19:34 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, then here is what you need to do... mount the drive in the Live CD and start deleting things you don't need | 19:35 |
| piglit | frostburn, i tried several dns servers | 19:35 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, there is something you can try | 19:35 |
| scunizi | george_: well .. there's the 173,177 & 180.11 driver available.. you might consider using the latest for that card thats available direct from nvidia | 19:35 |
| frostburn | piglit, you can use mtr example.org to see why it takes forever, use a dig @dnsserver example.org to see where dns is slow | 19:35 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, you can try to install ubuntu again but tell it _NOT_ to format the drive | 19:35 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, that could work but I won't guarentee it | 19:35 |
| dassouki | the fact that my computer is so warm using ubuntu is really bugging me | 19:35 |
| frostburn | thewrath, do you want to configure a dns server or do you just want your computer to use a different dns server? | 19:35 |
| piglit | even the page from my router is very slow | 19:35 |
| space_cadet | disable ipv6? | 19:36 |
| cjae | how does one query about the version of a package they have? | 19:36 |
| frostburn | piglit, make sure you don't have a power cable next to your cat5 | 19:36 |

| Rifo0 | hi, please can yall help me to find a way to install winxp back together with linux through ubuntu? coz my thinkpad has a supervisor password and doesn't lemme boot from the CDROM, and when i add the CDROM on the Boot Grub it runs ubuntu cd but doesn't run WinXp cdrom install! | 19:37 |

| thewrath | frostburn: both i want to configure my won dns sever that iw ill keep records at that all computers on my network would use. if there was a problem with my dns server then it would use my isp's dns server or another dns server | 19:37 |

| ubottu | cjae: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 19:38 |
| Rifo0 | i can use the bios as a normal user, and i am not allowed to change the boot order | 19:38 |
| george_ | Rifo0: sounds like u need to get that password to set bios to boot from cdrom, so u can boot from ur xp cd | 19:38 |
| space_cadet | Rifo0, what type of bios is it? | 19:38 |
| frostburn | thewrath, you'll probably want to read http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596001582/ for configuring bind, and for having computers use a specifc dns server, this can be accomplished through a dhcp lease or by editing the resolv.conf on every box connected to your network | 19:38 |
| cjae | thanks hateball | 19:39 |
| neurobuntu | Gartral, I've given you all the information you need to fix this, but something is going to have to give... either install again without formatting, try resizing the partitions and installing to the new partition, or copy the data somewhere else and reinstall | 19:39 |
| space_cadet | Rifo0, try merlin for the password | 19:39 |

| neurobuntu | Gartral, the knoppix live cd doesn't have something like transmission | 19:42 |
| frostburn | thewrath, because it's easy to configure, and a nice pretty ui for every option. your alternative is to learn bind. it does have a dns server, you can get the addon for it | 19:42 |

| lightpriest_ | just kill it | 19:52 |
| d6chung | lightpriest_: 5451. Tried it numerous times with -9. | 19:52 |
| lightpriest_ | d6chung, that doesn't make sense | 19:53 |
| d6chung | lightpriest_: I know, that's why it's bugging me! | 19:53 |
| kk_ubuntu | i saw in network that i could select my modem but after that i don't find the way to activate it | 19:53 |
| cbo | Rolie, How can I implement that behaviour? | 19:53 |
| Gartral | d6chung: try kill 5451 -15 | 19:53 |

| lightpriest_ | d6chung, bahh | 19:54 |
| d6chung | Well... the SysRq sequence worked. | 19:54 |
| hbekel | cbo: apache needs to run as root if you want to bind it to a priviledged port (lower than 1024), and since port 80 is the default... | 19:55 |
| d6chung | But had to go there physically to do it... | 19:55 |

| psychic | hi i have some serious tech problems with ubuntu | 20:41 |
| scampbell | Raylz: i would turn up the loglevel in /etc/sshd_config and restart your ssh server. Then attempt the connect, go look at log, if the ssh server got the connect request than it will tell you why it refused, If it never got it (ie no messages) then look at tcp wrappers. | 20:41 |
| blackest | lewench: is that the default pass code or is that a guess at what it might be? | 20:41 |
| Raylz | scampbell: ok ty | 20:42 |
| scampbell | Raylz: also, as a sanity check, run tcpdump -n port 22 on your server just to make sure the packet actually reaches your host. | 20:42 |
| scampbell | or wireshark if that's more comfortable :) | 20:42 |
| lewench | blackest, Guess. The passkey is not written in the instruction as it suggests you should use the USB device. | 20:42 |

| lewench | blackest, I got it. You have to type the key on the Dinovo and hit enter. | 20:45 |
| scampbell | Raylz: here's a trick then. Allow the user to ssh into your box. Have them use ssh -R2222:127.0.0.1:22 username@yourbox. Then you can ssh to port 2222 on your local system and ride the tunnel back :) | 20:45 |

| scampbell | Raylz: that means it's listening to eth0. If you attempt to ssh to it you should see the packet dump, if you don't see then there is probably a firewall in your way. | 20:48 |
| psychic | can some one tell me how to make myself root in terminal | 20:48 |
| Pici | !sudo | psychic | 20:48 |

| happyhessian | pepperjack: I tried that with an output to pdf, maybe that was my problem. do you have to list them individually or can you wild-card them? | 20:50 |
| Gartral | blackest: can i reinstall grub through busybox? | 20:50 |
| bercik | alias_willsmith: whats You graphic card? | 20:50 |
| scampbell | Raylz: it means it's someone elses firewall. If the iptables (local fireall on the Linux box) was stoping it then tcpdump would still see the packet. The fact that you dont' tells us that the packet never made it to that system, it was blocked somewhere in the network. | 20:50 |

| aLeSD | hi all | 20:52 |

| pepperjack | manmaknet: ubuntu's package mangement is arguably best thing about it. there is a ton of software available | 20:53 |
| blackest | Gartral: I'd pull the hdd and put it in a working sys even if its windows (you can get ext3 for windows) and pull your data off and try for a reinstall maybe with the alt cd | 20:53 |
| nztal | alias_willsmith, jaunty wouldn't work with my ati video card however i could get it to work with the alternate cd by dropping to a terminal and installing 'envyng-gtk' then sudo envyng -t then applying the ATI driver from envy. that was a solution that worked for me | 20:53 |

| scampbell | Raylz: I have to pretty soon but check your routing table. Tcptraceroute tried to send a pcket destined for 192.168.0.101 through your loop back instead of your network interface, the routing table told it to do that. | 21:03 |

| blackest | thordom: i use a variant in nautilus retagging music files ends up with a lot of useless subfolders | 21:23 |
| pepperjack | thasp: shouldnt move the folders. replace the mv with echo like echo $i. if youre going to do this though there is no reason to move em right? you could just do your transcode command instead of the mv | 21:23 |
| WilliamBlake | hi, my speakers don't mute when i connect the headphones | 21:24 |
| racecar56 | WilliamBlake, then turn down volume :P | 21:24 |
| thasp | i could just do the transcode command pepperjack but then i have to do another one for the *.ape files I figured if they were all in one folder i could dump them into soundconverter and not have to worry about it | 21:24 |
| musikgoat|main | WilliamBlake: did you see this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1024910.html | 21:24 |
| thasp | since oggenc has nothing for ape input | 21:24 |
| thasp | but since I can't move files without moving directories, I guess the transcode command would be the better route to go | 21:24 |

| Rabbitbunny | noqq: Yes. | 21:49 |
| Gartral | frostburn: no, my card was! | 21:49 |
| LjL | noqq: yes. the bootloader is the thing that gets started by the BIOS, and which has the job to load up the actual operating system. | 21:49 |
| frostburn | Gartral, hardware issues are the hardest thing to troubleshoot remotely =p | 21:49 |

| Slipp3d | a quick question about the RC and the final.....should i wait until the final iso or could i use the one that i have now downloaded? | 21:58 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: for example, a BFG 9800 gt oc 512MB graphics card requires 400W PCI Express®-compliant system power supply with a combined 12V current rating of 26A or more | 21:58 |
| musikgoat|main | and One 6-pin PCI Express® supplementary power connector -or- Two 4-pin perhiperal supplementary power connectors | 21:58 |
| smittyrock | I helped a friend install ubuntu, and when he logged on, it gave 5 different boxes of errors saying in each do you want to delete them. The last box was a nautilus error. | 21:59 |
| Aizawa | Slipp3d: Provided you're talking about Ubuntu; if you install with the RC iso you'll be fine, you'll only have to update it tomorrow, there's no major changes. | 21:59 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: of course yours will be different specs | 21:59 |
| Labmonkey123 | musikgoat the website for nvidia says minimum system power requirement 400w | 21:59 |
| armagheddonsgw | O.O what did i do??? its going haywire with graphics O.o | 21:59 |
| thahauss | Labmonkey123, a modular power supply that is also active PFC will do you well (google these if unfamiliar) | 21:59 |
| Pelle | Hello | 21:59 |
| Slipp3d | so the issue with ext4 isn't in the RC? | 22:00 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: i would suggest getting the information from the actual card manufacturer, not the GPU manufacturer | 22:00 |
| Labmonkey123 | so should i just look for a power supply that fits in a dell e510 and is over 400w? | 22:00 |
| smittyrock | On his desktop he doesnt have anything mounted to use wifi, nor his trash can. | 22:00 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: yes | 22:00 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: and has the pci-e supplimentary power connections you need | 22:00 |
| Labmonkey123 | musikgoat: how will i find if it has that? | 22:00 |
| racecar56 | im using ubuntu 8.04 on qemu with a RTL8029AS network card and it seems it wont connect to the internet. what's wrong? | 22:01 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: ask who ever you plan to buy it from | 22:01 |
| smittyrock | Did you copy that rabbitbunny? | 22:01 |
| thahauss | Labmonkey123, the e510 ships with a 305 watt power supply | 22:01 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: look at the number of pins needed | 22:01 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: On the actualy desktop or on the gnome panel? | 22:01 |
| smittyrock | Gnome panel. | 22:01 |
| Labmonkey123 | http://pcpowerzone.com/e510.html, would that be good? or is it over doing it? | 22:02 |
| Gartral | ive got a selection of drivers for my xfx 6200 gt, restricted drivers are (in order) 180, 173, 96, and 177, which should i take? | 22:02 |
| armagheddonsgw | err, is there a better clear command for terminal? "clear" just moves everything off the screen... | 22:02 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: It's an applet, right click, add applet. | 22:02 |
| guntbert | !ot | Labmonkey123 | 22:02 |
| ubottu | Labmonkey123: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 22:02 |
| Typh | Anyone know why "echo "base=0xe0000000 size=0x10000000 type=write-combining" > /proc/mtrr" would produce "bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument"? | 22:02 |
| thewrath | who sent me a message? | 22:02 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: the +12V amperage is good for what you need | 22:02 |
| cirE1 | hey everyone... good evening. i have a quick question.... i am trying to add users for the rest of the household. what is the best way to go about that?i dont understand the groups settings and all that | 22:02 |
| noqq | How can I remove boot-loader without the cd? Because I'm on a Netbook, can't insert cd's. | 22:02 |
| Rabbitbunny | Gartral: Personally, I run the 96 driver so WoW will work, you should try the latest first. | 22:02 |
| smittyrock | I know, but he doesnt have any options for trashcan, nor date, and time, nor wifi. | 22:03 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: and the connectors are good: , 6-pin PCI-E, 6/8-pin PCI-E | 22:03 |
| lzantal | pepperjack: it worked great. Thank you again. | 22:03 |
| pepperjack | noqq: you typically dont remove the boot loader but overwrite it with another | 22:03 |
| pepperjack | lzantal: cool np | 22:03 |
| musikgoat|main | Labmonkey123: so I would say that should be a good choice | 22:03 |
| Gartral | why would >96 break WoW? | 22:03 |
| armagheddonsgw | if youve no other OSs on the netbook noqq, you could just format the drive. | 22:03 |
| Gartral | Rabbitbunny: why would >96 break WoW? | 22:03 |
| picaboo | hello ubunturos! :) | 22:03 |
| racecar56 | hi | 22:03 |
| noqq | armagheddonsgw: I got Xp, like to keep it | 22:03 |
| smittyrock | There arent any icons for it when i right click. | 22:03 |
| armagheddonsgw | fair enough | 22:03 |
| Rabbitbunny | Gartral: It makes a lot of stuff red, dunno why. | 22:03 |
| noqq | pepperjack: overwrite with what? | 22:03 |
| armagheddonsgw | go into XP, run whatever program you used to install ubuntu | 22:04 |
| smittyrock | Copy that rabbitbunny? | 22:04 |
| armagheddonsgw | should be something there | 22:04 |
| racecar56 | will there be an ubuntu 8.04.3? | 22:04 |
| noqq | armagheddonsgw: I used the .iso to install, used it at a LiveUSB | 22:04 |
| magnetron | racecar56→ yes. | 22:04 |
| pepperjack | noqq: whatever other boot loader you want to use. basically any OS you install will take care of it | 22:05 |
| armagheddonsgw | use that then | 22:05 |
| ubuntu_greg | I can't wait for jaunty to come out tomorrow! | 22:05 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: the box doesn't pop up? what happens when you click "add to Panel"? | 22:05 |
| thewrath | ubuntu_greg: i have the RC and updating it now | 22:05 |
| armagheddonsgw | of course... you could always remove the ubuntu entry in boot.ini | 22:05 |
| thewrath | so it will be almost like the final | 22:05 |
| === edson is now known as dmesg | ||

| RickX | anyone know where sysinfo appears in the debian menu? | 22:06 |
| smittyrock | it gives me a couple of choices, but it should give me alot more than it does. | 22:06 |

| pepperjack | noqq: ah. boot a livecd and cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda :) | 22:06 |
| ubuntu_greg | hm, maybe i should give the rc a try | 22:07 |
| simka | hello all | 22:07 |
| cirE1 | xangua: well i just want to add simple users but i dont understand if i need to put them in a main group | 22:07 |
| ubuntu_greg | how are the notifications? | 22:07 |
| noqq | pepperjack: Also explain that command please. | 22:07 |
| musikgoat|main | ubuntu_greg: its pretty stable, and at this point, there wont be any change from the released version | 22:07 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: Did you do a full install, is something damaged, ae there errors? | 22:07 |
| cirE1 | in the intial installation, my name is a main group of its own.. will that happen when i add a new user? | 22:07 |
| pepperjack | noqq: overwrites with zeros. so not a good idea if you want to keep anything presently on there. | 22:07 |
| LordQuackstar | musikgoat|main: whats the command i put in in that new item dialog? I don't see a checkbox to enable it. | 22:08 |
| simka | is it possible to get all the neccessary stuff on one dvd like in openSuse or other distr... | 22:08 |
| pepperjack | simka: there is a ubuntu dvd yes | 22:08 |
| smittyrock | Did a full install, but yes, there were errors. | 22:08 |
| cirE1 | and is a password for users necessary? | 22:08 |
| noqq | pepperjack: So it deletes everything on that partition? | 22:08 |
| ubuntu_greg | what do i type in the run box to get it to let me update to the rc again? | 22:08 |

| armagheddonsgw | trying to install java | 22:08 |
| ubuntu_greg | ah ya thats it | 22:08 |

| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: If you type my name as the first word of your replies it will be much easier for me to find your replies. Can you still see the errors that popped up? | 22:09 |
| musikgoat|main | LordQuackstar: thats unusual, is the user account your in, a limited user? | 22:09 |
| musikgoat|main | LordQuackstar: you can try creating it, the command is users-admin | 22:09 |
| GotSanity | anyone have any experience with running seperate X displays? | 22:10 |
| LordQuackstar | musikgoat|main: i'm in the default ubuntu account, i've made sure i'm in the admin group too | 22:10 |
| racecar56 | GotSanity, not me | 22:10 |
| musikgoat|main | odd | 22:10 |
| racecar56 | GotSanity, i would like to know too | 22:10 |
| smittyrock | Rabbitbunny: No, they all go away. Only one comes back, and that is the nautilus error. | 22:10 |
| LordQuackstar | musikgoat|main: does it need to run as sudo? | 22:10 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: Can you put the text of the error on pastebin.com for me? | 22:11 |
| GotSanity | hmm, im attempting to run a copy of starcraft (through wine) on a second x display (because of resolution issues) and i have the display working great but im not getting any sound | 22:11 |
| musikgoat|main | LordQuackstar: no, it will have an unlock where you will be prompted for authentication | 22:11 |
| pepperjack | GotSanity: a very basic example is sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then echo gnome-session > ~/.xinitrc then xinit --:1 and xinit --:0 i think in seperate terminals | 22:11 |
| pepperjack | GotSanity: might have some typos | 22:11 |

| pepperjack | GotSanity: xinit initializes X basically starts x you could use startx instead. so that starts 2 x sessions one on display 0 one on 1 (if i typed it correctly) | 22:15 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: It gave you the worlds' worst error. | 22:16 |

| xerxes | 9.04 rocks...the snapshot is great so far | 22:16 |
| MrSteveman1 | tiredbones: it has no man page because its part of bash | 22:17 |
| pepperjack | GotSanity: there is no reason you need to stop gdm service. if you just want another x session you can alt-ctrl-f2 and then login and run that xinit for display 1 or 2 etc. if you echo $DISPLAY in gnome itll likely tell you 0 at the moment | 22:17 |

| tiredbones | MrStevemanl, Here is what I was looking for - ssize_t read(int fd, void *buf, size_t count); | 22:26 |
| Rabbitbunny | musikgoat|main: terrible. | 22:26 |
| * Rabbitbunny weeps. | 22:26 | |
| tiredbones | MrStevemanl, Thanks for your help | 22:26 |
| Rusty_AU | fuck | 22:26 |
| bauerbob | thiebaude, you didn't use a mirror, did you? | 22:26 |
| Rusty_AU | fuck | 22:26 |
| FloodBot2 | Rusty_AU: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:26 |
| smittyrock | Rabbitbunny: Im there. What to look in next after log? | 22:27 |
| musikgoat|main | Rabbitbunny: iirc it has zap in the name... let me look again | 22:27 |
| thiebaude | no i just upgrade through update-manager -d | 22:27 |
| thiebaude | that was 1 week ago | 22:27 |
| LordQuackstar | I'm confused with the Users and Groups gui. I installed ubuntu using the script from pendrivelinux.com, meaning nothing has a password, and the account i'm using is ubuntu. However, ubuntu isn't listed as a user. How can i change the password on the account? | 22:27 |
| airtonix | question: intrepid killed the font preview thumbnailer in nautilus. Is it back in jaunty? | 22:27 |
| Raere | I know this has probably been asked, but is this the real deal? http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/.pool/ubuntu-9.04-server-i386.iso | 22:27 |
| joaopinto | !jaunty | airtonix | 22:27 |
| ubottu | airtonix: Jaunty Jackalope is the codename for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 23rd, 2009 - Schedule in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule - JAUNTY IS NOT YET RELEASED - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party | 22:27 |
| pepperjack | LordQuackstar: open terminal and type 'passwd' | 22:28 |
| MrSteveman1 | tiredbones: are you sure its the bash read info you actually want, that looks more like a syscall | 22:28 |
| musikgoat|main | Rabbitbunny: Users who do want this function can enable it in their xorg.conf, or via the command dontzap --disable. | 22:28 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: You can type "nano <file>" to read any of those logs, one will have the error messages in it. | 22:28 |
| karim | hi | 22:28 |
| tsimpson | Raere: do not download anything until the release is announced, the images are NOT final | 22:28 |
| Pelle | how can i see what graphics card I have? | 22:28 |
| Rabbitbunny | musikgoat|main: Thanks. I'll write that down for the future. | 22:28 |
| quentusrex | Anyone know how to connect to an open ssh server with a server side key? | 22:28 |
| tiredbones | MrStevemanl, Yes, it was the syscall. Sorry for not being clear. | 22:28 |
| bauerbob | thiebaude, so it wasn't final ...but what's your impression? | 22:28 |
| quentusrex | the server has a public key to give out to those who can connect. | 22:28 |
| Rabbitbunny | Pelle: lspci | 22:28 |
| joaopinto | quentusrex, that is something that you can easily find on google, better explained than here | 22:29 |
| g4lv4tr0n | what times jaunty out :) | 22:29 |
| g4lv4tr0n | ? | 22:29 |
| thiebaude | bauerbob: its faster for me and uses less resources, i had the intel problem before where x would freeze, but yesterday i fixed it | 22:29 |
| MrSteveman1 | tiredbones: so you're looking for info on the syscall then, did you find it? | 22:29 |
| quentusrex | joaopinto: the difference is that I have generated teh keys on the server, and want to connect into it. | 22:30 |
| tsimpson | g4lv4tr0n: some time in the next 24 hours | 22:30 |
| quentusrex | rather than generated the keys on teh client. | 22:30 |
| thiebaude | bauerbob: its snapier and boot up is fast and notifications i love | 22:30 |
| MrSteveman1 | tiredbones: http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl2_read.htm | 22:30 |
| bauerbob | sounds great | 22:30 |
| joaopinto | quentusrex, that is not how it works... | 22:30 |

| tsimpson | wamng: probably sometime in the after noon (UTC) on the 23rd | 22:31 |
| g4lv4tr0n | no more intrepid problems :) | 22:31 |
| simka | is it possible to use apt-get for installation, and after installation access all the downloaded deb packages, so there is no need to download them for other PCs ? | 22:31 |
| armagheddonsgw | need some fairly specific help: creative x-fi elite pro card... drivers are only available as source code | 22:31 |
| joaopinto | TimMc1, no, that will not work | 22:32 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: I've got to reboot, don't freak out. | 22:32 |
| Nerq | Hey guys | 22:32 |
| bauerbob | i also can't wait, 'cause i've got a rt61 wireless card and 8.10 kernel has a buggy driver causing a interruption ~1/min, so it's not much, but when you play some online shooter and you hang for 5seconds every minute it's really a pain | 22:32 |
| Shadow__ | Hi | 22:32 |
| === Oradeanul is now known as Siropel | ||
| Rabbitbunny | simka: You want a netboot install. it's on the wiki. | 22:32 |
| tsimpson | !install | 22:32 |

| TimMc1 | joaopinto: 'Cause I definitely got it to boot, but it dropped me into BusyBox. | 22:32 |
| simka | thanks | 22:32 |
| joaopinto | simka, when you use apt-get all the downloaded packages will be kept on a local disk cache, you can copy those to other systems | 22:32 |
| Nerq | Hmm, quick question, what time is 9.04 released? | 22:32 |
| musikgoat|main | !outyet | nerq | 22:32 |
| ubottu | nerq: Jaunty is not yet released and there is no predetermined time when it will be. Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party or for more Jaunty/9.04 questions join #ubuntu+1 | 22:32 |
| joaopinto | TimMc1, that's is not a succesfull boot ;) | 22:32 |
| tsimpson | Nerq: probably sometime in the afternoon (UTC) on the 23rd | 22:32 |
| Rusty_AU | !outyet | nerq | 22:32 |
| TimMc1 | joaopinto: Apparently`dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sda2` is not sufficient. :-P | 22:33 |
| thiebaude | what channel is the ubuntu party for thursday? | 22:33 |
| mrwes | !automate | 22:33 |

| Pelle | Rabbitbunny: ok, I think the "proprietary" drivers for my "geforce 3 ti 200" card messed up my screen, can I get a better driver for it somehow? | 22:33 |
| Shadow__ | I'm at the initramfs prompt because mounting of root partition failed (i messed with keyfile and dm-crypt), i'm able to mount the real root or to fix the error in the keyscript. I need to know either 1) how to continue booting or 2) how to save the modified initrd | 22:33 |
| Nerq | arh, okay - I knew that it was the 23rd, I just hoped i was around midnight CET, so I could start DLíng it =) | 22:33 |
| simka | joaopinto: and how do i find local cache? is it in /tmp folder | 22:33 |
| susbwoy | Hi, I just want to verify the 56k modem on this laptop will be working. Not sure if it is in this lspci -> http://pastebin.com/m6e943ebc (buntu 8.10/toshiba satellite u400 laptop). Can anyone point me into direction to find out? kppp is using /dev/modem by default but there is no such device. | 22:34 |
| joaopinto | simka, /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 22:34 |
| gartral1 | well... its up.... but how do i set it so the DVI port is the primaray, it just wants to use the vga | 22:34 |

| bauerbob | :-) ...that's part of the topic in #ubuntu-release-party | 22:35 |
| PROject-Emerald | I have a Ubuntu problem... kinda weird actually. Whenever I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 for 5-10 minutes and I close FireFox, it will never come back up until I reboot. Kinda annoying tbh. And my sound goes away after about an hour. | 22:35 |
| PROject-Emerald | Any solutions? | 22:35 |
| bauerbob | any error messages? | 22:35 |
| ubuntuguy2 | What PC are you using? | 22:35 |
| gartral1 | PROject-Emerald: upgrade? | 22:35 |
| inter4ever | check if firefox process is still running | 22:35 |
| psychic1 | how do i fix this problem? /[mntent]: line 9 in /etc/fstab is bad | 22:35 |
| psychic1 | mount: can't find /media/cdrom0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab. | 22:35 |
| PROject-Emerald | Dell Dimension 2400... and I don't want to upgrade AKA why I'm on 8.04 | 22:36 |
| [4-tea-2] | PROject-Emerald: killall -9 firefox | 22:36 |
| Pelle | anyone know if there's a driver for Geforce3 Ti 200? | 22:36 |
| PROject-Emerald | Terminal won't load up properly either | 22:36 |
| TimMc1 | Is there a way to install Ubuntu into an unused partition *while* Ubuntu is running from another partition? (CD drive is broken, no alternate boot methods.) | 22:36 |
| PROject-Emerald | the box comes up but it just stays white inside | 22:36 |
| [4-tea-2] | PROject-Emerald: it seems your firefox is not really quitting when you close it, perhaps because a plugin won't let it. | 22:36 |
| gartral1 | so, i have an nvidia 6200, how do i use the DVI port as main? right now, i have BOTH ports routed into my monitor, but DVI displays nothing, only VGA... | 22:36 |
| smittyrock | Rabbitbunny: Are you back now? | 22:36 |
| PROject-Emerald | But is it normal for nothing to run at all after that? | 22:36 |
| [4-tea-2] | PROject-Emerald: and when it notices that it's already running, it won't start up. | 22:37 |
| platius | PROject-Emerald; have you started firefox from a terminal to see the error msg when you leave ff? | 22:37 |
| musikgoat|main | TimMc1: flash stick not available? | 22:37 |
| PROject-Emerald | Terminal won't even load properly... just a white box. | 22:37 |
| musikgoat|main | TimMc1: i cant answer your direct question, i don't believe you can | 22:37 |
| [4-tea-2] | PROject-Emerald: changed the color scheme to "white on white"? ;) | 22:37 |
| bauerbob | you should repair your terminal first, PROject-Emerald | 22:37 |
| ubuntuguy2 | The terminal problem sounds like a problem w/ the X server. | 22:37 |
| psychic1 | anyone know how to fix this [mntent]: line 9 in /etc/fstab is bad | 22:38 |
| PROject-Emerald | I haven't changed anything. But I just killed all the firefox processes and I'm still having a problem | 22:38 |
| TimMc1 | musikgoat|main: Naw, old BIOS can't boot from thumb drive. | 22:38 |
| musikgoat|main | psychic1: pastebin your /etc/fstab | 22:38 |
| PROject-Emerald | How do I repair the terminal and things? | 22:38 |
| bauerbob | put a # in front of line 9, psychic1 | 22:38 |
| [4-tea-2] | psychic1: look at line 9 in /etc/fstab and fix it. | 22:38 |
| TimMc1 | I can netboot/PXEboot, but... bleargh. | 22:38 |
| lattera | there's gotta be a way to throttle apt-get, anyone know how? | 22:38 |
| pepperjack | PROject-Emerald: anything clocking? `top` command? | 22:38 |
| lattera | I can't figure out how | 22:38 |
| musikgoat|main | TimMc1: :-) | 22:38 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: Bam. What'd you find? | 22:38 |
| Noqq | If I wanted a fast os, did I chose right for Ubuntu? | 22:38 |
| smittyrock | Rabbitbunny: I looked in auth.log and it had some errors do you think they are the same ones for the 5 boxes? | 22:39 |
| thiebaude | Noqq: yes | 22:39 |
| PROject-Emerald | pepperjack: I can't find an alternative to Terminal so I can't run any commands | 22:39 |
| pepperjack | PROject-Emerald: try alt-ctrl-f2 and login you can alt-f7 to get back to gui | 22:39 |
| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: Probably not, I'd suspect syslog or dmesg, But if you'd like you could paste those errors and we can see. | 22:39 |

| musikgoat|main | IronRoses: aparently cinelerra is a good candidate | 22:50 |
| LjL | armagheddonsgw: .tar.bz2 is just a compression format (like .zip). how you install its contents depends on its contents. | 22:50 |

| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: try running "killall bonobo-activation-server", and logging out, then back in. | 23:19 |
| musikgoat|main | second_thought: i think you are not understanding the definition of a wan ip address. it simply means what the outside ip address that others talk to on a router/gateway | 23:19 |
| smittyrock | Rabbitbunny: Will do. | 23:19 |
| dassouki | x-ip: http://pastebin.com/d663fb80 | 23:19 |

| second_thought | Oh, is see, I'm new with this. I'm trying to setup a server to be remotely accessible through the net | 23:20 |
| musikgoat|main | second_thought: likely, your ISP has granted you a wan IP address, which may change, or may remain static. I have comcast, which give dhcp addresses, but if i don't reboot my modem, my IP doesn't change | 23:20 |

| second_thought | and I'm trying to figure out what address to bind it to | 23:21 |

| Rabbitbunny | P13808: GHo ahead and ask, we're all waiting. | 23:21 |
| musikgoat|main | second_thought: you don't bind it to an address, you set a client to update to the web service | 23:22 |

| Rabbitbunny | smittyrock: Everything fixed? | 23:32 |

| MrSteveman1 | mheath: there is /etc/default/grub which lets you set global options, but i'm not sure if thats for both grub2 and grub1 | 23:32 |
| musikgoat|main | jv_: thats a rediculous statement, fdisk -l does what its supposed to do | 23:32 |
| JoeSolo | VIA implemented some proprietary interface for their SATA chips | 23:33 |
| DoyleChris | it sees a raid bus controllar | 23:33 |

| Lord_Devi | spaceBARbarian: Xamp is a good standard LAMP stack. Works the same on all distros. Turnkey.org has it's own Ubuntu based LAMP appliance too... (That one is quite minimal) | 23:53 |
| iceroot | Lord_Devi: of course xampp is not a good idea | 23:53 |
| mado | jv_, this could help you too ... the animals and the garden will help you to get some food | 23:53 |
| iceroot | Lord_Devi: using apache2 php5 mysql-server phpmyadmin from the repos is much better | 23:53 |
| spaceBARbarian | Lord_Devi: thanks,xamp looks good | 23:53 |
| jv_ | Lord_Devi: that what i was thinking but was too lazy to dig | 23:53 |
| mado | sheep -> wool ... probably milk? :) jv_ | 23:54 |

| mado | linxdev, i'm not sure but i guess some server have it already | 23:55 |
| iceroot | linxdev:yes i think anyone will know that | 23:55 |

| Lord_Devi | iceroot: that appliance is only 150 megs though. It's the exact same thing, but very trimmed for creating deployments and such. Anyway. Just though i'd point it out, turnkeylinux doesn't seem very common knowledge | 23:56 |

| geoaxis | Pelle: for what | 23:57 |
| strtok_ | I have defined my own (mocked) recv function, but the linker keeps using the version from libsocket | 23:57 |
| Lord_Devi | They have more such "Appliances" based on 8.04.2 there too. I'm holding my breath for a good Groupware Appliance. | 23:57 |
| strtok_ | I don't explicitly link against libsocket, and I want to disable the implicit link | 23:57 |
| Pelle | for a dynamic ip | 23:57 |
| strtok_ | any suggestions? | 23:57 |
| strtok_ | -nostdlib and -nodefaultlibs do not appear to help | 23:57 |
| FloodBot2 | strtok_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:57 |

| Psi-Jack | Is there any chance of getting Ubuntu's installation to detect and use the VIA RAID IDE controller for installation? I can see all the hard drives on the system, but the ones linked on a Raid-0 array just show up as individual hard drives and as unallocated. | 23:57 |
| genii | jewome62: Don't worry it will appear sometime before midnight of 23rd in Samoa | 23:57 |
| iceroot | Lord_Devi: always use the repo versions of original softare | 23:57 |
| iceroot | Psi-Jack: use the alternate cd | 23:57 |
| geoaxis | Pelle: dyndns.org | 23:57 |
| mado | what does this mean in plain english or plain german? :) | 23:57 |
| Psi-Jack | iceroot: Hmm, only the alternate cd can do it, through textmode install? | 23:57 |
| iceroot | Psi-Jack: 8.10 alternate is detecting (fake)raid | 23:57 |
| mado | musikgoat|main, :) | 23:57 |
| mado | what does this mean in plain english or plain german? :) | 23:57 |
